Andy Schweigard found his way back to painting in 2018 (for the first time since childhood) through several wrong turns and dead ends.rnrnWith his art, he moves between worlds both in his choice of motifs and metaphorically.rnHis latest works include mythological depictions as well as modern landscape paintings, nudes and impressionistic playfulness, all with very different pictorial themes. The individual motif forms the intersection, the window to an associated place, a state in the unconscious, in other words to another world that becomes accessible through the work of art.rnrnOne could say that he learnt his skills autodidactically, but this would only be true to a limited extent. Rather, he does not follow any didactic teaching in his development (neither in the academic field nor in self-study) but concentrates on the creation of works and allows himself to be carried to further stages of development through experience and ever new inspirations.rnrnFor him, the painting process is always a journey to an unknown place, somewhere between self-therapy and exploration of the universe.rnIn recent years, he has mainly worked with oil paints, but he also likes to fall back on his "gateway drug" of watercolours or other graphic means of expression (such as biros drawings or digital photographic works).
