Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Tim first visited Ibiza at just one year old.
Following a BA at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, USA, he spent 27 years in France, painting and exhibiting in Paris, Belgium, Switzerland and Shanghai.
In 2011, he returned to the family home on Ibiza, since when he has been a leading figure on the Ibiza art scene. He finds the colours and beauty of Ibiza an endless source of inspiration, as are the music, DJs and exceptional nightlife. A sense of realism and intensity of light shine out of his work, opening a window onto his unique vision of the world.

Born in Ibiza, Karina left at three years old but returned to paint after studying in the USA, drawn back by the magical energy of life on the White Island.
She describes her art as urban surreal with a leaning towards psychedelic, inspired by humanity, beautiful and dark.
As well as being a renowned Ibizan artist, she is also an experienced climber who loves the mountains of Ibiza and taking life to the limit. Her passion is for the planet, expressed by using reclaimed wood in her art. “If everyone picked up just one plastic cup, there would be no more litter in the world”. Small things make big changes if we all embrace them.
