Tim Allen Lawson is drawn to the quieter side of life. Over time, he developed the habit of patiently observing and studying the often overlooked rhythms and subtleties of his surroundings. In his paintings, he strives to establish layers and textures with pigments to create the depth of abstraction and subtlety he feels in nature and the world around him.
Tim Allen Lawson, contemporary American painter, is known for his landscape paintings in Wyoming and Maine. He studied drawing and portraiture at the American Institute of Art in Chicago and further his studies at the Lyme Academy of Fine Arts in Old Lyme, Connecticut. As a lifelong student, his dedication and love for his profession always evolved as his interests and influences constantly challenged him.
