Burnt Forest, Yellowstone Painting

Artist Bio – Tim McGuire I am a photographer, painter, and occasional filmmaker, deeply rooted in the landscapes that shaped me. Raised amid the striking beauty of Southwest Colorado, I first connected with the visual world through the vastness of high desert plateaus and the quiet grandeur of the Four Corners region. That early awe never left me—it simply evolved. My formal education in photography and graphic arts began in Flagstaff, Arizona, and continued through decades of hands-on experience in Seattle, where I lived for over 30 years. There, while working in commercial and editorial photography, I quietly nurtured a more personal, meditative body of work—landscapes, textures, and natural forms that spoke to something deeper. That work, once private, now stands at the center of my practice. Over the years, my creative path has broadened to include painting and filmmaking. My approach is intuitive but rooted in discipline—shaped by classical influences like Ansel Adams, Georgia O’Keeffe, Andrew Wyeth, and the painters in my own family, whose legacy runs through my hands. While much of my training in painting is self-directed, my photographic eye has been sharpened by years of education, assisting over 100 professional photographers, and more than three decades of immersive practice. I create to learn, to listen, and to connect. My work is a search—for clarity, presence, and the quiet truths the natural world offers us. Whether through the lens or the brush, I seek to capture the magic that’s always there for those willing to pause and see. Art, for me, is not a product—it is an offering. Each piece is a reflection of reverence for the land, a meditation on light and form, and an invitation to the viewer to experience the wonder I’ve witnessed firsthand. **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** My limited edition photographic works are always available to be printed to your specs and / or matted and framed ready to hang.
