Tim Pearson

Tim’s wildlife art was born from Lake Superior’s waters and surrounding wilderness. At an early age he was keen to observe the creatures around him, which eventually led him to the biological science field. That space brought him closer both to the subjects he loved to observe and the subjects he loves to paint. Tim works in watercolor, gouache, casein, ink, and the art of pyrography (wood burning), and blends both abstraction and realism within his wildlife paintings. “I like to explore the individual personalities of animals, but steer away from a literal interpretation. I try to add a sense of mystery and wonder to my subjects, to honor the fleeting glimpse and movement that I often experience observing wildlife.”
