He’s the author of Sharpie Art Workshop and the co-creator of several social experiments including the viral blog and book 40 Days of Dating (whose TV rights were optioned to Netflix). His first solo gallery exhibition, I’m Too Young To Not Set My Life On Fire, was on view in Manhattan in 2021. Timothy’s work often discusses topics such as mental health, manhood, race, politics, and love. He teaches at SVA, regularly speaks around the world at creative conferences. He lives in NYC.

This episode with Timothy was such a gift. He allowed us to see and hear the stories of the real person behind the artist and didn’t hold back in speaking about deep topics like depression, love, and money. During this show, Timothy unpacks how he infuses his life experiences into his personal work, and he opens up and shares many of his personal and professional stories. Pure gold!
