Grand Valley State University Department of Visual & Media Arts Professor of Drawing and professional artist Tim Fisher is heavily influenced by his own European culture and the traditional side of painting with images full of iconography, archetypes, and narratives. While his paintings may be full of bold colors, Fisher’s intent with each painted image is to create a quiet, familiar, and warm viewing experience for the casual viewer. For those who choose to look more closely, the stranger, out of place, sublime, and mystical Fisher’s images become. Drawing upon visual traditions in painting, many of his images are full of flora and fauna, and others include mysterious characters with a curious relationship with the plants and animals that surround them.
