Cool of West Beach | Oil pastel, ink & charcoal on paper
This latest original artwork is an expressive, colorful, and energetic contemporary piece that revolves around the experience of traveling along the coastline during the height of summer. It is inspired by the urban seafront, with its movement of people, displays of color, and the sights and sounds.
A regular subject in Timothy Gent's work, the coast at Lytham St Annes in Lancashire forms an integral part of this new series of images that contain memories and emotional responses to a place.
Welcome to my online gallery, a space dedicated to original contemporary abstract art inspired by the beauty of the natural world. Established in 2007, this gallery showcases my latest abstract paintings, each a unique expression of the coastal landscapes that ignite my creativity.
The artworks express the wonderful qualities of light, the natural sense of movement, and the atmosphere found at the seashore throughout the year, capturing beautiful views of the sea and the open skies from the sandy seashore at Lytham St Annes in Lancashire and Lindisfarne in Northumberland.
They are inspiring, joyful art reminders of nature and the sea, showing the lovely atmosphere and emotions felt from seeing the beach and the sea under different conditions.
I use contemporary, semi-abstract methods in traditional media with an evolving personal style, continually producing modern artworks that explore the qualities of the open sea and its beautiful coastline.
Enjoy original contemporary abstract paintings on canvas or on paper that celebrate wonderful coastal views as you look out to sea. Wide-open sandy beaches and atmospheric skies are explored through artwork that reminds you of nature through its style and mark-making.
Fantastic, original abstract contemporary oil paintings capture the mood and feeling of being by the sea. They aim to portray the qualities of light and the kinds of movement you find in nature.
The oil paintings on canvas or linen are the full expression of Tim's art, using multiple layers of paint on the canvas in a unique modern style that fuses the real with abstraction. These larger abstract paintings are available to shop online in the gallery.
Evocative and expressive, original watercolour paintings bring you the beautiful qualities of the seashore on paper. Magical tones glow from within, and they explore natural light and the rhythms of the weather and the sea. They explore twilight, sunsets, and atmospheric abstract views during different times of the year. The originals are the perfect choice for small to medium-sized art, and the watercolours offer flexibility and lower cost. They are available to buy online in the gallery.
When you choose to invest in original art from my gallery, you can expect exceptional quality and a personal touch from me, the artist.
