Tim's work has a very unique and personal quality to it. As you can see to the left, he managed to get his illustrations on a variety of Pepsi products. 
Personally, i am not a fan of his work, but i can appreciate the talent and i am very interested in the stages he went through to becoming a more commercial based illustrator.
I have emailed him a small questionnaire and hope to get a response for my blog ASAP.
