About Andy

Andy Council is a Bristol based illustrator trained in the traditional techniques of animation and drawing. The unique urban landscape and history of street art in Bristol has had a big influence on his work as has his fascination with urban myths and beasts.

Andy uses his drawing skills and love of detail to create bizarrely intricate collections of creatures; from rabbits made of tanks to dinosaurs mobilized by ‘lots of stuff’.

"I like this painting because it makes me smile. It's sort of like a storybook illustration. Not my favorite art I've seen so far, but still really cool. Keep on making art!"

"I loved his pieces called 'Monkey Jungle Fight' and Guardian - 'Disaster' on his website, realy expressive"

"Sometimes "stuff" is the only way to put it! :)"

"We can't believe our lucky find, a vivacious ceratopian. The frills of its neck shield are perfect for social attraction, and those two blue horns dangerously protruding over a salivating, beaked-shaped head with one eye glaring as if the beast were demanding, "Look at me, I was here! You are here." And as we study the bulk of its body, we answer, "Indeed.""
