About Ty Williams

Ty Williams is a multidisciplinary artist from Maine. His work is influenced by his time surfing its coastline, mixed with surf trips to tropical locations and his early childhood in the Caribbean.

Ty has collaborated with like-minded people and iconic brands such as Patagonia, numerous restaurant and hotel projects like Ace Hotel, and countless private commissions. His broad range of commercial work can be seen everywhere from murals, to t-shirt graphics, textile patterns, album art, to product and packaging designs for food & beverage products. 

Ty’s art has been exhibited nationally as well as in Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Indonesia. His work generally focuses on oceanic subjects – pulling imagery from old Jacques Cousteau films, advertisements from the 60’s, children’s books, and palettes that nod to the ocean.
