Andrew Jenkin

Born in 1976 and originally from Crewe in Cheshire, Andrew Jenkin has lived in Honley near Holmfirth most of his life. He spent three years at Keele University in Staffordshire where he obtained an Honours degree in History and Ancient History.

Andrew began painting in 1999 at evening classes run by artist Linda Pettican at Armitage Bridge, near Huddersfield. Honley artist Vera Waddington has encouraged him in his efforts, and introduced him to the Huddersfield Art Society where he is now Secretary. Working from his studio in a nineteenth-century textile mill near Huddersfield, Andrew produces vibrant watercolours, many of which depict well-known buildings and landmarks around the north of England.

Regular exhibitions include the Huddersfield Art Society Annual Exhibitions and Holmfirth Artweek. Andrew's first solo exhibition was held in August 2004 at Washington Art Centre.
