Oil Paintings by Andrew Anka

Children of the Worm 2025 - oil on canvas 295cm x 200cm

As an artist who began his formal practice later in life, Andrew brings a rare depth of perspective, personal history and emotional insight into his work. Having taken up painting in his thirties, he reignited a childhood passion and over three decades has developed his skills with remarkable dedication and maturity.

Andrew is a contemporary artist with Surrealist and Dada influences, and is a natural story teller. His brush work serves as a powerful vehicle for his insights and his visual language is sophisticated, nuanced and distinctively his own. Since 2022 Andrew has had seven solo shows, and his work has garnered attention for its originality and emotional intelligence.
