When he is working on a piece Tim studies sketchbook, drawings made from skins and taxidermy props, and his own collection of photographs.

"Demonstrating a mastery of his craft and a deep understanding of the birds that he depicts, his work perfectly captures the play of light and shade over feathers, while silhouetting his subject on an abstracted color background" via here.

He exhibits his work at the Jonathan Cooper Gallery, London. Also, his paintings are exhibited at the Masterpiece Art Fair and at the BADA Art fair. His work is collected worldwide by private collectors.
