Artist information
Born in Southampton way back in the seventies, Tim has always wanted to draw and paint, but somehow life got the better of him and he only really found the courage and confidence to commit to art in his late forties. Having spent a few years painting buildings and objects, people and animals, he’s hoping to dig a little deeper soon and show a little more of what’s going on inside.
Tim paints in a meticulous, realist style and often finds himself getting lost in the intricacies of a painting, so that when he looks up, it’s way past his bedtime. His paintings are often of people, places or situations he doesn’t want to forget, and while they may appear somewhat photographic, there is something of his personality in each one.
Tim favours the medium of oil paint for its rich depth of colour, blending abilities and the way it allows overpainting when things inevitably go a bit awry.
