Tim Southall Paintings

Tim Southall was born in Staffordshire in 1961. He studied Fine Art at Northumbria University and then printmaking Royal College of Art and École des beaux art, Paris. Based in London for 20 years, Southall now splits his time between London and his house and studio in Cadiz Province, southern Spain. The base upon which he builds his work is metaphysics, existence, objects and their properties, space and time, cause and effect and possibility. Using these guides, he expresses how he sees and experiences the world. This he does mostly through the use of narrative within a landscape using either the human or animal form to create a narrative. Southall strives to make work that is delicate and shows a lightness of touch along with an eye for detail. Southall also uses the language of drawing and mark-making in an attempt to describe emotional depth and atmosphere.
