My work is improvisational. For this piece I stared with a layer of geometric shapes in watercolor. Several months later I added an ink drawing over the top. I drew with a cropped brush dipped in india ink. Months later I added some watercolor to the drawing - filling in some of the inked shapes. I named it Terrible Tim because that popped into my head when I stood back and looked at the finished piece. I'm inspired primarily by nature and architecture. Especially how plants grow. I hope viewers will see a portrait of a frustrated robot - Or anything else they'd like. :) I do hope people feel some joy and look at this with a sense of humor. My brother's name is Tim...But he's not horrible. So this is not really an accurate portrait of him. Perhaps there's another Tim like this. Maybe your husband? I love Watercolor and India ink!

MIKE BISKUP is a contemporary watercolor painter, musician, and caretaker of The Green Way in Gardiner, WA on Washington State's verdant Olympic Peninsula. Born in 1970 in Los Angeles, he spent his youngest years voraciously drawing quirky characters, complex contraptions and way out worlds with his two older brothers. Artwork flowed onto all of his papers at school bringing accolades from most of his teachers. At UC Santa Cruz, he swam in a richly blended stream of artistic freedom, Zen Buddhism and Native American spiritual consciousness while earning a degree in Fine Art. After school, Mike spent two decades homeschooling three intrepid children in the wilds of Port Townsend. Nest emptied, he embraced his role as a bringer of visions in the Artist/Shaman tradition elucidated profoundly by Joseph Campbell. At age 50, a powerful mystical experience shed new light on Everything… His paintings can be found in collections worldwide, notably that of Oscar-winning actress Patricia Arquette and Facebook Inc.
