boundaries of artistic expression. Andrew strives to create unique, intelligent
and original concepts.
His work is in major shows and collections around the world. Andrew Myers
was born in Braunschweig, Germany, and raised in Ciudad Real, Spain. He now
resides in Laguna Beach, California, where he has lived since attending the
Laguna College of Art and Design (formerly known as the Art Institute of
Southern California) - 1999-2001.
Although Andrew is best known for his time and labor intensive screw pieces,
his work spans multiple genres and mediums, including sculpting, painting, and
drawing. He most enjoys fast, expressive pieces like charcoal sketches, yet at the
same time, feels that true art requires struggle, energy, time, and sacrifice - all of
these elements are found in his screw artwork. With the complexity, unique
subject matter, and the use of unusual materials, Andrew produces between
10-12 screw artworks a year, each of which is an experiment in art, mathematics,
and creative problem solving.
Andrew continues to push the boundaries of his craft, constantly searching for
new subjects and unconventional mediums in which to capture them. He
especially enjoys using objects and materials that are not conventionally
considered art. Andrew’s guiding principle is to create better art today than he
did yesterday. He knows that this means he will never be content in life, but he
feels blessed to have found fulfillment and purpose in his role as an artist, a
father, and a friend.
