About Timothy Hacker
THE FINEARTAMERICA WATERMARK WILL NOT APPEAR ON ANY ORDERED ARTWORK. I am a retired physician with a longstanding keen interest in photography. I have been photographing for many years and have taken a variety of courses. I continue to be and have been juried into many art shows and I have won many awards in various contests I have entered. I have had several works at the Collectors Corner gift shop at the Toledo Art Museum. I have pieces in several art galleries, offices and restaurants. The Chop House in Toledo and Real Seafood in Naples have many of my images.
