Timothy Easton describes his approach to painting as 'a preoccupation with light'. His beautifully crafted, evocative and varied oil paintings include landscapes, coastal scenes, gardens and still life. 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.
Timothy has had solo exhibitions of his paintings and sculptures in Germany, Luxembourg, America and various parts of Britain, including London. He is also known for his academic discoveries in articles on historic buildings. Because of the time he spends painting, all the historic subjects he writes about are of his discoveries, not subjects covered by any other writers though they have been sufficiently influential to have spawned followers.
