My Name is Tim Shute, 23 and I have a BA (Hons) Degree in Illustration, Graduating from the University of West England (UWE). I am a sport enthusiast and this translates into my practice. Moving forward I want to take part in creating reportage art around sporting events as well as advertising sporting events and creating editorial Illustrations.
My practice involves combinding traditional methods (such as watercolours, oil paints, sketches and natural textures) with a predominately digitlal process and finish through the Adobe Suite.
I have most recently ventured into product design by creating graphic designs for sports clothing with an ambition to expand this further by myself and/or designing for other people and companies.
