The Guinea Pig Show By Ben Andrew & Friends
Advertisement
“Not many artists have bothered with painting guinea pigs, and perhaps they did not own or love them.” Sonia Coode-Adams, regarding Dan Hays ‘Guinea Pig 2’.
Level Best Artist Ben Andrew has been bothering to draw, paint and print guinea pigs for many years, and he clearly loves them. ‘The Guinea Pig Show’ is a collection of just some of these pieces, old and new, created here at Level Best Enterprises.
In 2025, Ben made a body of work, drawing popular pet animals (including guinea pigs) which he put together with assistance from Level Best, and produced a self-published colouring book - funded by a Firstsite Collectors Group Bursary.
Guinea pigs are, of course, featured, alongside his beloved Westie dogs, and lots of cats, birds, reptiles and other rodents that humans like to call friends. This exhibition is a way to celebrate Ben’s huge achievement and share his talents.
His colouring book ‘PETS’ will be available for sale over the course of the exhibition, and at the special Exhibition Party, there will be a chance to have your copy signed by the artist.
The exhibition will feature a small number of artworks by other Level Best Artists, which also focus on Guinea Pigs.
Exhibition open: 1st-31st July, Monday-Friday 8.30am-4pm
Exhibition Party: Tuesday 21st July 1.30pm-4pm
Admission free, all welcome
