It's all about me

Tim Schmitt is a writer, artist, crafter, and a social, philosophical, and spiritual anarchist who finds writing about himself in third person to be very odd. 

He has worked professionally as a writer and editor for more than 20 years at various newspapers and in the communications office of a couple local colleges. He plays drums and guitar (poorly), hikes and camps whenever he can, practices chaos magic when it suits him, and plots and schemes and daydreams like Walter Mitty on a meth bender.

Tim is constantly building, crafting, or creating art of one kind or another.  He  works in a range of mediums, based on his mood and mental state at any given moment, and currently enjoys using natural materials — wood, tree bark, stone — to create unique pieces of art. He also uses found and thrifted items, "upcycling" them or altering and repurposing them to create new works of art

He currently lives in Des Moines, Iowa, with his dog Bailey, cats Peabody and Sherman, and a few dozen houseplants. He is determined to lead an honest and genuine life, to focus on the things he loves, and to be kinder every day. 

He really hopes you like his work and will consider making a purchase.
