About the 2007 featured artist
Tim Wadsworth has been drawing and painting since early adolescence and worked with a wide variety of mediums in multiple forms. Early guidance and influence came from his grandmother and by the self study of many admired artists and works. While in school, most of his focus was on technical drawing and drafting but there was always a desire to work with the freedom of sketching and watercolors.Tim studied Art at Slippery Rock University and completed his B.S. in Business Administration in 1981. Combining business interests with artistic ability found him opening the doors of a small business that offered commercial art services to the suburban Philadelphia area and beyond. Projects ranged from graphic design, murals, gold leaf, hand-carved signs, lettering, to commissioned paintings. He ran this business for 15 years before joining the corporate world.
First published in 1991, Tim was able to gain broader exposure and recognition by distributing his fine art prints to regional galleries. This in turn, led to displaying and selling original work in local galleries and opportunities to participate in art shows and events. His work is included in many private collections. Tim is also the "artist in residence" for Montgomery County Town and Country Living magazine - painting the covers of the magazine since the Fall of 2004. Tim resides in Collegeville, PA with his wife Marissa and their three children.
Working primarily in watercolors, Tim Wadsworth's subject matter gravitates to the Pennsylvania landscape and often focuses on historical architecture and timeless rural settings. More recent works include oils, acrylics, and mixed media to accomplish a higher degree of realism.
