About the Artist

Steam rises off the hot coffee.

Old Glory shimmers dreamily in the morning breeze.

The leather binding of the Bible feels cool in your hand.

As you settle into your porch chair, the sun blazes to life over the horizon.

The day promises new mercies, freedom, and time spent with family. 

The Shepherd Art Company's aim is simply this -- to celebrate these joys found in our Christian faith, these free United States, and the warm hearth of family life through art. 

After spending several years "grinding" in the busy world of Washington, D.C., Andrew and his wife Cheyenne moved to rural Virginia.

An artist from a young age, Andrew enjoys capturing every moment in art: historic sites, country sunrises, the turn of the autumn leaves, the first snowfall. He uses a variety of mediums including pencil, marker, watercolor, pastels, and acrylic paint. 

Much artwork today is muted and unbeautiful -- and perhaps not even dreamt up or made by a human.

Andrew's artwork stands apart. 

Every piece -- made by his skillful hands -- showcases vibrant colors and the beauty and simplicity of American life. 

When Andrew isn't painting, he's busy entertaining his two young children alongside his wife Cheyenne.
