Andrew Thompson
Hey There! I'm Andrew, or more specifically, "SchmandrewART." I’m an award winning illustrator. My work is bright, energetic, and full of emotion. Although my artistic roots began in the world of screen printing and contemporary pop art, my subject matter has begun to shift into what I like to call "fantasy pop".
Since 2013, I've created work for Bioware, SuperMassive Games, Boom!, Lucasfilm, Bethesda Games, Mondo, Sony, Variety Magazine, Bojack Horseman, Reebok, Marvel, and Wizards of the Coast. In that time, I’ve shown my work at Gallery1988, Gallery Nucleus,The GenCon Art Show, Spectrum: Fantastic Art, Dragon Con, and many other conventions across the country. In addition to that, I'm also continually developing my own body of personal work while teaching on the side
I got my start teaching at CCAD (Columbus College of Art and Design) where I taught Digital Illustration, Drawing, Portfolio Projects, and Capstone. After 6 years, I left CCAD to focus on freelance, but education will always be a huge passion of mine, whether that’s in person through speaking events, online, or through my Patreon mentorship.
I love my tv shows, Magic: The Gathering, my dog Cadence, and if you talk to me long enough, you'll probably hear about my time as a camp counselor. Oh, and my favorite color is pink. Shocker, I know!
