Tim Daly

One of Hoboken’s long time artist residents and certainly among its most talented, Tim Daly will be showing his work in the "Night & Day" Exhibition from 05/02/13 - 06/09/13.

Tim is a realist painter who was born and raised in Jersey City and currently lives in Hoboken, having first arrived during the pioneer days of the late '70s when, as Tim recalls, living in Hoboken was cheap. 

Tim studied at School of Visual Arts and is best known for his landscape paintings of Jersey City and Hudson County, and his mural series in the south mezzanine N.J. Transit's Secaucus Junction Rail Station. Tim works with acrylic and oil on canvas and charcoal and pastel on brown paper, and sometimes takes pictures in order to capture the visual information he is interested in. Tim has had numerous solo and group shows in Hoboken, Jersey City and New York, and is represented in numerous collections.

According to Tim, it’s the oddness of the New Jersey landscape that he’s most drawn to, especially the landscape surrounding Jersey City– specifically Jersey City Heights where he grew up, and the Meadowlands, and the urban industrial landscape of the New York/New Jersey Metro area. 

Tim has described his work as "recent history paintings"– paintings of things and places that are about to disappear. He draws inspiration from American, Dutch, and English landscape paintings. Tim's works depict moody hyperrealist scenes, often requiring years to complete, and boast his mastery of atmospheric light. His works can often be considered a meditation on light as much as a study in realism.

Among the work Tim will show in the “Night & Day” Exhibition are landscape paintings entitled “Global Hawk Crash, Eastern Maryland”, “Tornado Swarm, Delaware” and “WTC Site 9/13/01”.

Come join us at the Opening Reception on Sunday, May 5th, from 3-5p to see Tim's work.
