Tim Vivian - 'More Places Made Special'

Thursday 13th November to Wednesday 3rd December

The exhibition comprises work done over the last two years.  Each painting emanates from a natural subject observed; engagement starts with a drawing and/or a photograph.  Later in the studio I seek how to celebrate the subject, why it fascinates me.  If successful the result will be an abstraction and as much a celebration of the free use of oil paint as of the original subject.
