Tim Engelhardt

Arcadia, Abstract Painting

2024

Artist Comments
A collage of papers, screen printer ink, and acrylic paint capture the land and seascapes of Acadia National Park. Artist Tim Engelhardt took inspiration from the coastline and the waves crashing into the rocky shore, smoothing and eroding the granite. He walked forested trails that led him to stunning vistas, where he witnessed sunrise and sunset on the Gulf of Maine. This abstract artwork is his attempt to capture the jewel of Maine.

About the Artist
Artist Tim Engelhardt creates abstract compositions that explore the complexities of the human psyche. He uses color and structure to explore his feelings while grounding each piece in the reality of who he is in the moment of creation. “Much of my work starts from a yearning to understand existence and relationship,” says Tim. Though he has never had formal mentorship, Tim has built his path through persistence, the support of his wife, and a strong artistic community. Based in Pittsburgh, Tim paints at a 260-square-foot studio in a converted Westinghouse factory. When he’s not making art or working full-time at a bank, Tim enjoys spending time with his family, tending his yard, and watching musical theater.
