Maui-based artist Tim Garcia has been creating stunning works in marble, local wood, and bronze at his Upcountry studio since 1999. His artistry is driven by a deep connection to his materials, finding joy in every step of the process—from the sharp “ping” of the hammer and chisel to the smooth, cool touch of a finished sculpture.
Tim’s work embodies a harmonious balance of shape and form, designed to captivate the eye and invite the touch. Inspired by Maui’s breathtaking landscapes, his pieces echo the island’s natural beauty—from its majestic mountains and valleys to the moonlit sea. His sculptures are not just visually striking; they are tactile, evoking a profound connection between the viewer and the art.
In addition to his artistic practice, Tim is passionate about supporting and empowering the creative arts on Maui and throughout Hawaii. A dedicated educator, he teaches sculpture at the Hui No‘eau Visual Arts Center in Makawao, helping to nurture the next generation of artists.
For Hawaii’s commercial clients, Tim’s sculptures bring elegance and a sense of place to any environment, from luxury resorts and corporate spaces to private collections. His ability to translate Maui’s natural beauty into timeless art pieces makes him a sought-after artist for businesses looking to create meaningful and inspiring spaces. Tim Garcia’s work is a reflection of Maui itself—rich, vibrant, and deeply connected to the land and community.
