Tim Harney

"The preoccupations of my work are many and varied. While I paint landscapes and still life and make non-objective collages, the imagery of my paintings often involves the figure and some form of psychological portraiture. Some of the ideas and feelings I endeavor to express concern a sense of loss, the passage of time, things remembered or glimpsed - a history. The subject matter is second nature to me; family, history, memory, dreams, and loss are the stuff of living and breathing and, obviously, painting.

I hesitate when discussing the content of my work because one runs the risk of separating the medium of expression from the imagery. To speak of these things independent of each other is meaningless."
