About Tim


Bio

Hi, my name is Tim H. and I have been creating art for over thirty years in one form or another. I originally received my degree work at Kutztown University, where I majored in art taking courses in drawing, painting, and ceramics. I left the university to serve in both the Marine Corps and the Army.

During my time in the military, I developed my skills in art as well as my knowledge of art history and more specific world history. At each duty station, I sought out the arts and crafts...

Hi, my name is Tim H. and I have been creating art for over thirty years in one form or another. I originally received my degree work at Kutztown University, where I majored in art taking courses in drawing, painting, and ceramics. I left the university to serve in both the Marine Corps and the Army.

During my time in the military, I developed my skills in art as well as my knowledge of art history and more specific world history. At each duty station, I sought out the arts and crafts centers as well as any art facilities within each community. I taught classes in drawing, painting and pottery. I did these classes in such places as Okinawa Japan, Korea, Germany and Tacoma Washington. While serving in these locations, I also continued to work on my art and experience other forms as well.

Along the way, I sculpted, knitted, carved, weaved, and built or designed in wood and jewelry. But mostly, I observed. I have done the academic side of art and art history, but I have also enjoyed being self taught and successful in my own studio. I have a special interest in pencil portraits, painting (figurative, Landscapes, Abstracts or Contemporary). I understand concepts like line, perspective and composition. I encourage anyone experiencing art for the first time, or considering a career or simply an interest to please contact me and let me assist you to get the training you need. I look forward to scheduling a time that will fit your needs. Thank You.

Approved Subjects

Drawing

Drawing

I attended Kutztown University, where I was working to a BFA. Many of my drawings were about perspective. One, Two and Three point, and atmospheric and linear perspectives. over the years I have practiced completing compositions that have balance, and in recent drawings, I have been concerned with line weight and variety. I have had numerous commissions for pencil drawings. These have been executed in charcoal, ink, watercolor and pencil and pastel.
Painting

Painting

Painting is not something that came naturally to me, but over the course of many years, I was able to develop a style which was closely related to impressionism, by applying paint in an impasto manner on the canvas. Most of my paintings exceed my expectations because of my drawing ability and putting the image on the canvas to paint. I have worked with photos, but mostly try to get out and do plein air style for landscapes and still life subjects.
