I am very lucky to have been given an exhibition space right in the centre of Oxford, at Stanford House on the High Street. From Cornmarket Street in the centre, it's quite a way down the High Street, opposite Longwall Street and Magdalen College Library. Look for the big red door, ring the bell, and somebody will let you in.
I will be there from 11-19 May 11am - 6pm every day, with the exception of 15 May, when the exhibition will be closed. There will be prints, cards and original paintings for sale. Please do come along and say hello if you can. You can make a day of it as you can also visit loads of other talented artists exhibiting in the same area.

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. There’s a story in there somewhere that might work its way out, but for the time being he’s happy painting buildings and objects, people and animals.
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. But ultimately, he has a lot to learn, and is really only taking his first faltering steps on a long journey.
