Tim O'Brien

Tim O'Brien, an award-winning artist, author and tutor lives and works in

rural south Nottinghamshire. He started his art career over 40 years ago,

having been trained in the traditional ways of commercial art and

illustration in the late 1980s. As digital technology revolutionised the

industry he decided to move away and focus on painting fine art in the

mid-1990s.

Today, Tim enjoys painting landscapes, urban scenes, motoring, marine,

railway and aviation topics, mainly in oils and watercolour for exhibitions,

either plein-air or in the studio. Over the years he has worked on a wide

variety of projects but the highlights are when he has collaborated with

the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force. This has given Tim opportunities to go

flying and spend several days at sea with the Navy on board their aircraft

carriers gathering reference for his art.

Tim's paintings have been exhibited at venues such as the Mall Galleries in London, alongside members of The Royal

Institute of Oil Painters and Royal Society of Marine Artists. For several years he also had a stall at the annual Patching's

Art Festival. He is a founding member of the Nottingham Painters Collective plein-air group.

Since being awarded an Adult Education teaching qualification by Nottingham Trent University in 2002, he has taught art

classes, as well as delivering demonstrations and workshops for a range of topics in a variety of media to clubs, societies,

and small groups.

Tim was a Wildcard Contestant on board HMS Wellington in heat 5 of series 11 of Sky Art's Landscape Artist of the Year

competition, where he painted an oil painting of the south bank of the River Thames.
