Tim Thompson, who was born in Hull, England, is a self-taught
painter and one of the few marine artists utilizing traditional oil techniques. By placing layer upon layer of translucent wash on canvas, Thompson is able to produce a luminosity, which is rarely seen in contemporary marine paintings.
Displaying an elegance and sophistication reminiscent of works
by the 19th century masters of marine art, his works are widely collected by marine art connoisseurs around the world. Thompson's work has also been celebrated in two books, The Winning Moment, a history of the America's Cup, and The Story of Yachting.
Thompson's work has been exhibited worldwide, extending from Europe, to Washington, DC, and at Australia's Royal Society of Marine Artists Exhibitions.
