Andrew was born in 1984, he finished school in 1996 and started helping his father Mathias Kauage and mother Elizabeth painting. Since Mathias died in their house at Morata in Port Moresby, Andrew has continued painting with his young brother John. Andrew is working in the Kauage tradition, and now moving out from the shadow of his father to develop a strong and distinctive individual style.
