Andrew Horrod – Fine Artist

Welcome to my website

I am a professional painter who uses oil, watercolour and chalk pastel.  Examples of my work are shown on my themed pages.  Click on an image and it will appear larger within a light box.  Close the box to return to the rows of images.

Dimensions shown do not include mount or frame unless otherwise stated.  Pictures of London are included on both my Landscape and Urban Scenes pages.

Prices for original paintings range from about £250 unframed to £2,000 framed, depending on what is involved.  I am happy to consider landscape commissions.  If you are interested in buying a painting you see on the site, or having a commission piece of a particular location, please get in touch via the link on my contact page.  I will guide you through the process, answering any questions.  Work is handed over/despatched once final payment is received.

I update my website regularly, summarising current painting activity under ‘Latest News’.  Photographs of recent work are often posted to my Instagram account:

Latest News – 17 October 2025

Regarding Sky Arts’ Landscape Artist of the Year competition, I was one of the wildcard artists for the heat filmed last year at Hampton Court Palace.  I have put a photo of my painting in situ on my Landscape page and will add a photo of the finished picture soon.

I was delighted to win first prize in the inaugural Eton plein air competition, held in May.  A photo of my painting of a street scene by Eton College Chapel is on my Urban Scenes page.  Another painting of Eton High Street is nearing completion.  I was also pleased to win a runners-up voucher prize in a plein air event held in Chelsea on 27th September.  This was organised by Green & Stone, the well known art shop and gallery on Fulham Road.  The prize was really surprising given that I could only do 2 hours of the 5-6 hours available – and my painting sold!

I look forward to taking part again in Art for Youth’s annual charity exhibition.  This will be held at the Mall Galleries, London between the 4th and 7th of November.  Fundraising events are held each evening but the exhibition can be seen free of charge each day, 11am – 4pm.  I am also looking forward to Chelsea Art Society’s Autumn exhibition – 22nd to 30th November at 340 Kings Road, Chelsea.  More generally, I am out and about in London (and elsewhere), locations include Covent Garden.  I will add images of recent paintings to the website in due course.

I maintain an email contact list so please let me know if you would like to be added.  Typically subscribers receive half a dozen emails per year, which are sent ‘blind copy’, and sometimes include an image or invitation.  You can of course unsubscribe at any time.

Since 2012 I have had more time to produce work, which people often and kindly describe as beautiful.  It is always based on direct observation and learnt drawing skills.  There is a bit more about me, my work and prizes I have won on my About page.
