“The Creative Timothy Kroe”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Timothy Kroe\u2019s art, although possessing different subject matters that range from the human form, to deep forests, (and some creatures between) all hold a stark contrast between the light and darkness. There are flecks of gold, an iridescent color that only reflects when light catches it, making each piece come alive throughout the day. Pearlescent ivory gleams like moonbeams, and other colors shimmer in interference that the digital or printed medium cannot possibly replicate. The commonalities of each of his paintings are greater than their differences.<\/p>\n

Currently he\u2019s working on a dreamy series of forests: \u201cThe Forest Dreaming of Me, or am I Dreaming the Forest?\u201d pictured here. It is a slight departure, the darkness in his \u201cDeep Forests\u201d work being replaced with light foggy airs, although both have a quality of \u201cotherworldliness.\u201d Thick paint applied with a palette knife often replaces the brush, giving his pieces a texture that fully grounds the work. A self-taught artist, Timothy graduated from Antioch University with a Bachelor of Arts with a focus of Archetypal Imagery, \u201cthe meat and potatoes\u201d of his work he often says.<\/p>\n

Having spent a few years in Seattle, Washington, (which he credits for his love of deep forests) he moved to Palm Springs, California in 2000, following his dreams of the desert. Those dreams can be reflected in his \u201cDesert Landscapes\u201d illustrated by his exploration of the Joshua Tree National Park, \u201ca place everyone should see and experience\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Timothy has shown throughout the West coast, having exhibits in Seattle, San Francisco, and Portland Oregon with pieces in Los Angeles, San Diego along with many shows in Palm Springs, and with global clients as far afield as Australia. He has a deep spiritual connection to his work, saying: \u201cPainting is my church, it\u2019s where I connect with the Divine.\u201d His \u201cSacred Visions,\u201d the title of his early pieces, includes a conscious of human kind\u2019s connection to the Earth, and how we act as the caretakers of it.<\/p>\n

As an exceptional creative he can also be found writing and currently has three un-published novels completed. Timothy acknowledges that there is a hint of escapism to his creativity and has exciting larger things planned for the future \u2013 watch this space!
