Timothy Hawk is a nationally recognized architect, educator, and fine artist from Columbus, Ohio. As a painter, Hawk works from direct observation and paints in the plein air style on site in communities. His work seeks to capture the subject as it is influenced by weather, light, and live activity. Tim’s paintings focus on architecture, communities, and landscapes, and his approach to art captures places with bold clarity, often elevating the drama created by the juxtaposition of topography, form, and ornament.
Hawk travels with architectural peers, “The Wanderers”, throughout Ohio to capture the rich tapestry of small towns, cities, and suburbs. He is particularly interested in documenting the graceful evolution of Ohio as a unique place in the American landscape. When not in Ohio, Hawk captures travel destinations, documenting memorable places and significant landmarks.
Hawk believes that art should be accessible to all, and mounts his work using a unique process which heightens the work’s visual clarity while encapsulating and protecting the delicate painting surface.
Tim resides in historic Grandview Heights with his wife, Kristin, and has a design studio in German Village.
Tim is represented by Sharon Weiss Gallery.
