Tim Cousins is an abstract painter working in APT studios. He references
the animal figure and the natural landscape as an aid to his picture
making. The location of Deptford has been a continual influence
on his work for nearly thirty years, since he first arrived in London
as a student at Ravensbourne College of Art. The process of making
his work involves both quick, gestural mark-making balanced by careful
and consdered adjustments to the image.
In addition to his studio painting he regularly works in the open
landscape and initiated the work of the 'Sharing a View' group that
has included artists such as Denis Bowen, Cuillin Bantock and Germaine
Dolan over the previous eight years. The group continues to show
work in different parts of Britain on a yearly basis.
Tim continues to work as a teacher/educator in the field of fine
art.
