Tim Stensland does not limit himself to one specific medium or style when he creates his art. He feels the piece itself chooses its medium, whether it's a work of social commentary or expressionistic explorations of the creative process. The basis for Tim's highly personal art lies in autobiographical experiences, revelations and insights. His work sheds light on social injustice as well as man's influence, for better or worse, on the world of nature. His powerful portraits of post-Katrina New Orleans are done in a stunningly visceral folk style which speaks to the pathos of human suffering made worse by bureaucratic ineptitude.
He creates his abstract expressionist figurative oil paints by placing black and white paint directly onto the canvas and sculpting it with his fingers. Avoiding brushes, tools, or models when creating these works, gives him an intimate connection with the work and the figure that emerges from the canvas. It is this profound depth and purpose of the creative experience that is revealed in all of Tim Stensland's art.
