Polis

I was influenced by ancient Greek history especially 479-404 BC the golden era.

I was contemplating the Polis state how very different state groups traded and interacted.

Also the idea of the polis and the passionate feelings that inspired from the ancient Greeks towards their city states. The blue represents the sea and Greek trading routes..the circles the political reaches of different states like Sparta, Thebes and Athens.

The top down views are of early city state structures like a satellite picture.

I’m Tim, a painter based in Newcastle, Australia, just north of Sydney. My work is driven by the joy of creating and the love of exploring ideas through paint. Most of my weekends are spent in the studio, experimenting with styles and techniques, while I work as a delivery driver during the week.

Over time, I’ve curated a collection of over 400 works, each representing a chapter in my artistic journey. My portfolio reflects the styles I’ve explored and the narratives I’ve pursued, from intimate, reflective pieces to larger, concept-driven works. Through my art, I aim to share both personal experiences and universal stories, inviting viewers to engage with each piece on its own terms.
