Tim Brown – A Visionary of Naïve Art

Tim Brown (1923) is a remarkable African American artist known for his raw, untrained yet deeply expressive style. His paintings, created on wooden panels, capture the vivid memories of his youth—family, friends, river fishing, farm work, and his loyal dog, Bark. Growing up on his parents’ farm in Mississippi, Brown first painted on scrap wood and planks using leftover house paint. By the 1950s, he began documenting his childhood memories, driven by a desire to share his past with his two children.

Brown’s paintings from the 1970s, available here, are a rare glimpse into his nostalgic world, beautifully rendered with vibrant colors. His work exudes a unique, youthful energy, making him stand apart from any other artist in his genre.
