"Andrew Tsihnahjinnie, in many respects-incisive interpretation, spontaneity of brushwork, originality of color, vigor of draftsmanship and vitality of action-had no equals among the artists of the studio and perhaps few superiors among modern painters. If equanimity and self-confidence were to rule his artistic abilities, Tsihnahjinnie might well be one of America's top-ranking painters. In the brief seasons when he felt freed to paint the things he knew so deeply, without troubled concern for doing otherwise, his work attained a trenchant beauty, unique in modern art. Dorothy Dunn, 1963
