Welcome to the World of Swampy Don!
AKA satirist & illustrator Tim Doyle
Tim Doyle is an award-winning political satirist and illustrator. Influenced by the biting wit of Ralph Steadman and the surreal imagery of Gary Larson, Tim has developed an unusual sense of awareness that cuts to the quick on issues that demand attention. His acute eye for detail and resolve to present images truthfully have been developed by working as a commercial photographer/film-maker in a previous career. During this time, Tim received numerous awards both nationally and internationally. By turning his creativity to political satire he has been able to distill the broad range of political misfortune into an accurate portrayal of wrongs within the system. Tim’s plans are to keep making the public aware, through the use of humor, so that change can happen, if only we are actively involved.
As the late U.S. Representative and activist John Lewis said, “When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, say something! Do something! Get in trouble! Good trouble! Necessary trouble!”
Tim’s academic past has included a diploma in photography from the Center for Creative Studies, Detroit, a BFA in drawing from Wayne State University, Detroit, and a post-graduate diploma from the London Film School, London, England.
Tim resides between London, England and the US.
