Andy Kehoe was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and still lives there today. From an early age, he loved cartoons, comics, and story books – all fuelling his imagination. Shortly after graduating from high school, Andy explored a number of different art schools before settling in to the illustration course at Parsons School of Design in New York. After dabbling in commercial illustration for a short time, Andy decided it was time to focus on his personal work. Andy’s work has since been exhibited and collected internationally.
His paintings incorporate narratives of mystery and mysticism; of the grandeur of nature; of magic and spiritual adventure. Always challenging himself and experimenting with new techniques, Andy's most recent work incorporates intricately modelled sculptural elements submerged within layers of poured resin and paint.
