Tim Huesken studied drawing and sculpture at the Alberta College of Art and Design (ACAD) where he completed his BFA in 1997. After graduation he taught Extended Studies drawing classes at ACAD as well as full time drawing classes at North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre. While some projects have occupied more of his time than others, he has been teaching workshops and short programs consistently for the last 18 years. Timβs interest in games and animation has been the foundation to why he began drawing in the first place: Minsters and Robots!
Through gig posters, digital media, video and board games, imaginative creatures and strange worlds are a common theme in his work. Tim moved from Calgary to Victoria BC in 2007 where he worked for a video game company as a character designer and animator. He currently lives and works in Halifax NS.
