| After
10 years of teaching himself to paint, Artist Tim McCormick had his
first exhibition in 2001.Since then he has produced over 1000 paintings,
shown extensively on the west coast, opened 2 art galleries, and come
out of total absurity to exhibit with many artists a few years earlier
he had only seen in magazines. This Southern California native's inspiration
comes from a love and need to make art, and to express his feelings
and thoughts through painting. Tim's work is about all aspects of
life, from the most profound to the most trivial, everything is relative,
everything is important. Tim's future plans are to paint everyday
and further explore and improve his craft and visual language, while
contining to reach out to a larger aduience. "My work is in a constant state of evolution and experimentation. In spirit I've combine a type of figurative expressionism and surrealism in which every piece is improvised from a very loose plan or no plan at all.The true meanings remain totally personal, a kind of riddle I am telling myself, a riddle that often I don't even understand until I've had a chance to reflect on it. I've learned that my most successful work is painted with my heart and not my head, this is an approach I have worked endlessly to refine in my over 5000 paintings. Therefore my work conveys a certain state of consciousness in which I let myself do the painting with no guidelines or goals. only the experience I have at being in this state allows me to create a successful painting. I continue to elaborate and refine this approach driven by the desire to see just how far I can take it. I truly look forward to the paintings I will do in 10yrs - 20yrs and the rest of my life." |
