“I commissioned illustrations from Tim for years (from 2000, it's impossible to remember) while I was editing 'Aeroplane' magazine for IPC Media (until 2010), and could always rely on him completely.”
Michael Oakey - Historical group committee member at Royal Aeronautical Society
“Tim was one of the youngest and most current artists to contribute to the prestigious book "Wright to Fly" which described 100 years of aviation with each year illustrated by a top aviation artist from around the world. I coordinated the artistic content and Tim contributed an original painting "Channel Bike Ride": commemorating the first crossing of the Channel using pedal power in 1979. I was so impressed with it that I bought the original! Tim's work is innovative and exciting. I commend him to all interested in high quality aviation art"
