“Since joining us from Uni Andy has proven himself to be a capable and diligent artist, with a good deal of potential. He has coped with pretty much everything we have thrown at him, and taken on tasks well above his grade. He seeks out and takes direction well, and can work to a brief (however vague) and is able to bring his own ideas to the table when required. He is able to get the job done on spec and on time, and with a minimum of fuss - and you can't really ask for more than that!”

“I have taught Andy for 3 years and he has always been one of the most dedicated and hardworking students in his course. He puts a lot of pride in what he does and always sets his standards very high. He is passionate about his work and has never shied away from putting in the necessary time to get it right. He takes and offers constructive criticism very well and his sense of humour has always been a calming influence for his fellow students.”
