T. Bill Andrews (b. 1958- Hutchinson, Kansas) is an American abstract impressionist painter and author. T. Bill paints impressionistic landscapes, florals, and figurative studies, but his primary emphasis is on extremely large-format action painting in the style of Jackson Pollock.

After serving in the U.S. Navy Nuclear Power Program, 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 "T. Bill" (sometimes "T-Bill," depending on the context). He then attended Yale Law School where he was an editor on the Yale Law Journal and summer clerked for the federal court of appeals in New York City and the US Attorney in Connecticut. He wrote a fictionalized memoir of his experience at Yale entitled "Power Ties." His current title is Assistant Iowa Attorney General Thomas William Andrews, where he represents the State of Iowa in federal matters and in state and federal appellate proceedings.

His abstract art studio is located in Des Moines, Iowa. His largest collection of work is at his flagship gallery in West Des Moines. Acquisitions at other galleries are handled by Mid-America Art Brokers of St. Louis.
