About Me
For as long as I can remember, I have carried a passion for capturing the world on canvas. Originally from Cape Cod, my lifelong journey as an artist has always been guided by the beauty of nature. Whether it is a dramatic coastal sunrise or a sudden change in light across the water, I am the painter who will pull the car over just to photograph a breathtaking sky before it fades.
Today, my wife Pam and I call Edgewater, Florida home. The vibrant southern landscape, lush coastal views, and unique light of Florida provide a fresh, continuous well of inspiration for my newest work.
I believe a painting is complete only when paired with the element that brings out its best. To complement each original canvas, I carefully restore vintage frames—breathing new life into antique craftsmanship to complete new stories or hand-select a new custom frame.
Thank you for visiting timfoleyart.com. My hope is that these original pieces bring a sense of joy, light, and warmth to your home or office space.
Behind every original painting is a story inspired by light, water, and local scenery. Take a moment to watch as I share my background in art and what continues to inspire my work. This video was filmed at The Artists’ Workshop of New Smyrna Beach.
