Since 2018 Tim has been creating murals full time, painting public artworks for VicRoads, Winton Wetlands, Strathbogie Community, Monbulk Historical Society, Weathercraft Wines, St James Silos, a laneway in Rochester dedicated to Ron Iddles ‘The Good Cop.’ In 2020 he completed his most significant project, six enormous silos in Colbinabbin.
