Tim Gabel in a Nutshell
This is my website where I put my art and photos, some students work and some old prose. I am around 50 years old, youngest of twelve, originally from Wisconsin and I have been living in Washington, DC over half my life now. I have a degree in Printing & Publishing from the Madison Area Technical College. My interstes and hobbies include bicycling, teaching art, computer graphics, music collecting, garage saling, gormet cooking, hiking, travel, yoga, weightlifting, and playing games on the computer. Some of my favorite things in life include teaching and making art, music, food, sleep, flowers, trees, birds, certain scents, fun-loving and quirky people, parks, museums, and exotic places. I appreciate tolerance of people's differences ... thoughts and ideas and idiologies. My hero is Louis Armstrong ... It truly is a wonderful world we live in ... with the exception of the wars, poverty, hunger and cruelty toward our fellow human beings, let's not accept these things now or in the future. Then what a wonderful world this would be if we could just learn to love one another... Peace and Love to Everyone, Tim

The Story Behind My Site
I had been planning on having a web space for some time, and now I have it together. I keep creating art and photos and put them on my web space as I see fit. I was told by a friend at my old job about this easy, free format site to put my art, so here it is. I hope that this site pleases you and that you enjoy my art...
Other people who have influenced me and inspired me to create my web space and art...
I would like to thank everyone in my life who has given me inspiration to do my art and photos. My mother had always been there for me for as long as she was here on earth, she passed in May of 2009. Robert Einweck, Ed Henkle, Pat Harrigan, Leane Gabel, Ed Moore, John Leekin, ALL of my students at the Sitar Center have inspired me, and all of the people in my life who have encouraged and inspired me to continue to do more with my art and photography than I ever thought I could. Again, I'd like to thank everyone very much for all your faith, inspiration and encouragement. Thank You!
I am currently teaching two classes at a local arts school here in Washington, DC. The school is called the Sitar Center, named after Patricia Sitar and founded by Rhonda Buckley. The classes I co-teach are collage and a color mixing/landscape painting classes. We meet on Saturdays at eleven a.m. and 12 noon consecutively. It's very rewarding and challenging and both classes are some of the finest things in my life.
