“Egypt has long inspired me as a place to paint - some how the Nile has retained a timeless quality and its wide serene beauty with Falukka under billowing sail and waterside Temples convey a sense of permanence in this changing world. Being with other artists creates a sense of healthy competition alongside the wonderful comradeship.”
Born in Shropshire in 1947, UK artist, Tim Scott Bolton originally gained a degree in Estate Management from London University but since 1984 has painted full-time. He and his wife, Tricia, lived in Kenya for a few years and after leaving bought a farm in Wiltshire which they run organically.
Tim travels extensively to paint and apart from Africa, India, the Middle East, United States and Europe are common destinations. He has also been an artist in residence at Garsington Opera twice and in 2016 he did a number of events to celebrate Capability Brown’s tercentenary about whom he wrote a book,
‘A Brush With Brown’.
