Andrew Banks is an artist and freelance illustrator. Andrew works with watercolor, pen and ink and graphite and his subject of choice is architecture, architectural landscapes and cityscapes.

Andrew has always enjoyed sketching, but it wasn’t until a 6 week study trip to Europe in 2008 that his passion for on location sketching solidified. Visiting cities like Rome, Florence, Venice, Paris, Copenhagen, and Stockholm, He was inspired by the ancient architecture, urban fabric and vibrant city life.
