"The simple beauty of Andrew Mackenzie's most recent paintings belies the time and effort that goes into making them....These interventions into the anonymous, urban treescapes capture a tension between abstract pattern and
reality, the point where nature meets human.... Memory and romance are in a dialogue with the necessities of modern life and its own particular aesthetic beauty."
