I’m an architect, and I’ve lived and worked in downtown York for the last seven years. I serve on York’s Historic Architectural Review Board, on the York County History Center’s Building and Grounds Committee, and for the last year and a half I’ve been sharing my hand-drafted pencil-and-ink portraits of York’s historic buildings under the name York Architecture Illustrated. I grew up in a place called Cypress (a suburb of Houston, Texas) which, while originally mostly rural, was developed heavily and haphazardly through the late 1970’s into a series of planned suburban communities. Throughout my life, the environment around my home was changing so frequently that physical ties to community and history were often lost at a rate too quick for preservation. This regular feeling of loss – even grief – left me seeking a sense of place and shared identity that eventually led me to Pennsylvania, and later York. It was through living and working in York City that I arrived at a way that I could truly engage with the surrounding environment by combining my practical skills with my passion for preservation. I have some experience drawing in pencil and ink, and as an architect, I have a few years of hand-drafting classes under my belt. While this skill is no longer used in practice, it felt fitting to revive the techniques of historic architects to shine a contemporary light on York’s beauty, as well as return the favor to a place that has made me feel at home.

Hello, my name is Andrius, but most know me by Andy, and some call me Artist Andy, since I’ve been creating art for most of my life now. I currently reside and create in York, although I’m originally from a little eastern European country called Lithuania. My art may be hard to describe, as it is ever changing. I enjoy using color, nature, animals, music, patterns, people, emotion, and most of all, imagination. I enjoy learning all forms of art from sculpture to tattooing, which I believe plays a huge role in my art, as it is always evolving. That being said, the main reason I love to create, is that it gives me the true feeling of freedom. I believe you can see that in my art, from the colors to the characters and composition, all are of my choosing. In daily life you don’t always get to choose these things, but in my art, its always my choice. The viewer gets to look at those choices and make their own opinion, which makes art extremely special to me. I originally started showing my art at The Parliament and Hive Artspace back over 15 years ago. As a budding artist, this opportunity gave me the chance to share my art and get my name out there. From this exposure, many murals came to fruition in the downtown York area. Nowadays I’m able to give other local artists that same opportunity through Virtue Local Art Market. We opened our own gallery in June of 2021, and over two years later we are 80 artists strong and bringing the art scene to our local community of Hallam, PA.
