Abstracted Nature: Paul Timshel

Guest Author: Richard Wills, Tulsa Art Studio Tour Committee Member

Paul Timshel, Plato Time, Acrylic on Canvas, 48"x36"  

What do bugs and painting have in common? The answer is Paul Timshel. For most of his life, Timshel has had two passions, insects and painting. Upon entering college, he was able to combine these passions with a scholarship for insect drawing. 

From this diverse background has emerged a superior acrylic painter with an uncanny knack for incorporating the natural world into his artwork. Whether painting in his studio or in his backyard, Timshel could not think of working in any other medium.

Meet & see the working studio of Timshel along with 10 other artists on April 21-22, noon until 5 pm on the Tulsa Art Studio Tour. Read more in Art Focus Oklahoma magazine or purchase tickets here www.TulsaArtStudioTour.org.
