Andy Harris

Metal artist

Andy Harris is an ex-fisherman from South Devon. Now a metal artist, he produces delicate expressive observations of nature using iron. Andy has not only caught the attention of Wightman Gallery, but the tenacious, East Anglian born chef, Jamie Oliver. Oliver himself has been supporting Andy since his new found iron art career began and commissioned a series of iron gates for his East Anglian garden.
His current project of a horse (pre-liminary drawing below), in tool steel and brazed will be on view and for sale at 'Lines' on Friday 29th March, 2024
