About the Item

Timothy Rees was fascinated with drawing throughout his youth and after high school pursued a degree in animation. The pull to painting portraits and figures was strong, however, leading him to learn the craft in the open studios of the Palette and Chisel in Chicago. After one year he joined the staff of instructors, and soon began teaching workshops locally and abroad while showing his work in galleries. He went on to develop and teach a classical art training program for the Scottsdale Artist School, then formed his own atelier, where apprentices studied under him full time. In his spare time, he recently completed a Bachelors in Justice and Ethics through University of Iowa, and formed a 501c3 nonprofit called Bridges to Art, bringing economic opportunity through arts programing to geographically remote and underserved regions of the world. Timothy paints a range of subjects and in various techniques, but is best known for his loose all prima portraits, striking figurative abstract blended work, and naturalistic outdoor figure paintings of women and children. While some of his work has a narrative or a message, he says the most important thing with his paintings is to add to the inherent beauty of the world while exploring what it means to be human through the visual experience of paint.
