About the Item

Kate Tea — Masterful Modernist Portrait by Harry Charles Tim (Framed & Signed) Bold, distinctive, and charged with emotive clarity, “Kate Tea” is a compelling example of Harry Charles Tim’s evolving and highly personal visual language. The portrait, with its sharply stylised features, angular elegance, and vibrant orange tones, invites comparison with 20th-century masters, yet it remains unmistakably his own. Tim's painterly instinct blends psychological intensity with compositional daring, delivering a work that is at once confrontational and quietly poetic. Tim, born in 1956 in Stratford-upon-Avon, came to art not through formal academies but through lived experience. His early years in the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, including active duty in Northern Ireland, infused his worldview, and later his artwork, with a deep sense of human complexity. After leaving military service, he spent much of the late 1980s and ’90s travelling across Europe, ultimately settling in Germany, where he balanced fine art dealing with his growing commitment to painting. Now garnering increasing attention from private collectors and contemporary curators alike, Harry Charles Tim is emerging as a genuinely distinctive voice in postmodern British painting. His creative vision draws from a deep well of historical knowledge—from early Renaissance structure to the bold fragmentation of the Expressionists, yet always channels this lineage into something fresh, visceral, and highly original. Often compared in spirit to early Picasso, Modigliani, and Bacon, Tim's work is not derivative, but rather an evolution, a continuation of expressionist storytelling through a contemporary, emotionally literate lens. His subjects, like “Kate Tea,” feel alive with quiet provocation and intense interiority. Collectors take note: Tim’s trajectory is upward. His work presents not only visual and emotional power, but real promise as an emerging investment. The hallmarks of a long-view artist are all present—intellectual rigor, formal invention, and an ever-deepening artistic identity.
