About the Artist
I was well into grandfatherhood when I painted my first picture. A life-long “doodler”, I took a few drawing classes in my fifties and dreamed of painting the “Great American Landscape” but never seemed to find the time to grab a brush and jump in.
Raised at Lake Tahoe, I’d spent much of my life hiking the mountains of the western US
and Alaska, as well as sailing on Tahoe and San Francisco Bay and have lived in the woods for months at a time. Nature is indeed my inspiration. In 2022, at the age of 68, I finally walked the Tahoe Rim Trail. A dream of mine for three decades. 170 miles later, I walked out of the mountains and into the world of landscape painting. I just had to share my experiences with others and painting is the way I would do it.
Working mostly in oils, my first few paintings went to my kids and grandkids (their “Papa Tim”). Now I paint for you, wishing you could see what I have seen.
