T. Bill Andrews
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
T. Bill Andrews (b. 1958- Hutchison, Kansas) is an American abstract impressionist painter and author. Although he also paints impressionistic landscapes, florals, and figurative nude studies, his primary emphasis is on extremely large-format action painting in the style of Jackson Pollock.
After serving as an instructor in the U.S. Navy Nuclear Power Program, and as an engineering supervisor on the nuclear-powered guided missle cruiser USS Bainbridge, he enrolled as an undergraduate member of the University of Iowa Writers' Workshop in the mid-1980's. It was while at the Writers' Workshop that he adopted his nom de plume (though when he writes he hyphenates his name to read T-Bill Andrews). He then attended Yale Law School where he was an editor on the Yale Law Journal and summer clerked for a judge on the federal court of appeals in New York City. Most recently his title was Assistant Iowa Attorney General (under his real name, Thomas William Andrews).
His abstract art studio is located in Des Moines, Iowa.
