My Story

Andrew: The Incarcerated Picasso

To see him is to love him. To love him is to witness the power of art, faith, and resilience in their purest form.

Andrew is one of the most talented artists to ever bless the campus canvas. Within the walls of his cell, he has transformed confinement into a sanctuary of creativity—a personal art gallery where brushstrokes and sketches tell stories of faith, fellowship, and family.

The son of two loving parents who eagerly await his return, Andrew has faced the storm of life with unshaken faith. He carries an unwavering belief that incarceration is not the end, but rather an incubation—an intense season of growth destined to give birth to beauty, purpose, and transformation beyond circumstance.

Art is his medium, but also his escape—a spiritual expression that bridges his reality with his dreams. A gifted designer and accomplished teacher, Andrew shares his talent freely. He is a friend, true friend to Terry Brown, a leader among men, and a beacon of generosity, giving his time, skill, and testimony to lift up those around him.

To know Andrew is to understand that true greatness is not measured by circumstance but by the depth of one’s character. His life and art embody courage, compassion, and the unwavering belief that beauty can rise even from behind bars.
