Timothy Easton describes his approach to painting as “a preoccupation with light”. His beautifully crafted, evocative and varied oil paintings include landscapes, coastal scenes, still lifes and gardens. He usually paints from life, only using photographs in paintings such as his series of the Henley Regatta where detail is so important. A great source of inspiration to him is the garden he and his wife Christine have made at their home, Bedfield Hall, in Suffolk.
