Tim Fisher

Born in Leicestershire, Tim is entirely self taught, he is a very popular art demonstrator and tutor.

Approaching his paintings like a researcher, Tim works with the heart of a purist and the mind of a realist. Wherever possible, he collects his own reference material by observation, field sketches, notes and photographs. His work is a composite of all these elements plus a remarkable use of light and colour to produce intriguing and inviting images. His diligence and ongoing efforts to improve his skills working in a variety of media culminated recently with a one man show at The Barbican, London.

Tim has won many prizes with his art, including being a finalist in the First Daily Mail NOT the Turner prize competition where he was short listed from 12,000 entrants. His work has appeared in national newspapers and can be found in public, private and corporate collections throughout the world. One of his paintings was recently purchased by Peter Jackson, producer of Lord of the Rings.

The consummate draftsman, coloured pencils suit Tim’s style of working admirably. He regularly uses them for finished artwork and sketches and is often in demand to demonstrate their unique properties to art groups. Tim regularly demonstrates for Cretacolour and Derwent pencils as well as writing regular articles in the Leisure Painter magazine and WH Smith’s Start Art bookzine.
