Hi, I'm Tim. I'm a craftsman/artist working mainly with wood. I'm currently based in northern Virginia.
Note: There is another Timothy Raines who is a painter, I do not paint.
I started working with wood in 2017. I had just purchased a house and needed furniture. I started with a farmhouse table and eventually found my way into wood carving.
I use a mix of power carving implements and hand tools to create free-form wood sculptures and bowls. Each of my works seek to answer a simple question: If one were to ask mother nature for (a bowl, an abstract of the human form, a demonstration of a specific geometric idea, etc) what answer would she return? Each piece is my best attempt at an interpretation of that answer. I find the result of that process yields the aesthetic I desire with any imperfections being my own.
