...look of what he saw without apparent effort. Now his technique has become as unobtrusively slick as that of Surrealist René Magritte (see above). And for an age when storytelling in paint is frowned on even by academicians, Andrew's pictures are suitably storyless. His sharply sunlit Afternoon (on exhibition with 17 other of his paintings at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts last week) looks as pleasant, and as posed, as a vacation snapshot...
