One of California's finest artists!
Timothy
Horn is a gifted artist who captures on his canvases a lovely clarity of
air, light and mood in the often humble scenes he paints. Almost
all his work is done on location, in the outdoors or “plein air”.
He finds painting on location to be endlessly challenging, yet the only
way to really get a strong sense of energy and freshness into a
painting. He generally spends anywhere from 1 to 3 sessions on a
painting, sometimes doing small touch-ups back in the studio. He has
become one of California's outstanding landscape painters and a favorite
at the William Lester Gallery.
Throughout his career as a designer, Tim has always kept one foot
firmly planted in extra curricular, fine art endeavors, including black
and white medium format portraiture, furniture making and design, and
making clocks from salvaged materials.
Tim
Horn graduated from the Cooper Union School of Art in New York City in
1984, where his focus was primarily graphic design. After school he
worked at several design firms in the city before moving to San
Francisco in 1992. Tim lives in Fairfax, California with his wife and 2
young sons, and paints all over Marin County and beyond.
