Tim was such a dedicated follower and photographer of Tiki. His mother was Ione Keenan, she decorated the Tradewinds in Oxnard. Thanks to him, I have a photo of her in Tiki Modern, and one of her sketches in Tiki Pop. Tim grew up meeting all sorts of interesting personalities in Southern California.

He even came out to see my exhibition in Paris, also because his brother, a renowned contemporary artist, had just installed a Museum exhibition right across the Seine river. Naomi and I walked over for our lunch break one day to see it.

I am totally surprised and saddened by this news, Tim was a really sweet guy.
