| Struck by the emotional quality and efficiency of minimalist, abstracted art, he turned away from his prior emphasis on photorealism and began to explore minimalism instead. This new focus demanded that he learn to master oil paints as well. He enrolled at the University of Texas, where he earned his BFA with an emphasis in painting. He has remained in Austin since graduating. |
| Andrew has been receiving accolades for his artistic work since he was a teenager, and critical reception continues to follow him throughout his adulthood. His paintings utilize color as a visual language, breaking away from the bombardment of the media and the excessive noise of traditional art. |
