Tim Fowler

The British artist Tim Fowler uses bright colors and broad brushstrokes to create abstract paintings in mixed media.

By depicting scenes of modern urban landscapes and distorted portraits, Tim Fowler employs bright, saturated colors that give his paintings a Pop Art tone. He works with acrylic, graffiti ink, and spray paint to address fairly traditional subjects, thus rejecting the outdated conventions of these popular genres.

The color pink is a central element in Tim Fowler's work. Whether capturing light, creating movement, or infusing emotion, the predominance of pink in his practice gives warmth to each of his paintings.
