This is a painting of one of my children’s toys – a small plastic figure of Andy Day that came with a CBeebies magazine sometime around 2017.

Andy is dressed in his Andy’s Dinosaur/Prehistoric/etc. Adventures gear. My eldest son and I used to love watching the programmes, and used to take toy Andy on adventures around our living room.

Sadly at some point clumsy Daddy trod on him (he’s cracked on his other side) and he’s lost a lot of his paintwork, including his Gizmo, but Andy is still a much-loved toy. The painting was made in acrylics on paper last year (2024).
