In 1999 Bendigo Art Gallery staged a survey exhibition of the artist's work titled, 'Painting Light.’ Browne's paintings have a stylized realism and an emotional coolness.
His subject matter ranges from landscapes and cityscapes to nocturnal images of lights and trees.
In the catalogue to the exhibition "Depth of Field" the curator Louise Tegart wrote, "Mysterious and highly sophisticated, the stylised paintings of Andrew Browne are based on his continuing observation of the world through photography.
While his recent works are more descriptive than in the past, they continue his fascination with selective vision and the nature of seeing.
