Tom Rickman was born in London in 1960. He studied at Epsom School of Art and currently lives in Cornwall. Tom is interested in the minimal qualities of the sea and sky, using the hoizon as a focal point of the picture. these paintings take as their subject the specific time or moment of twilight, "At the end of the day there is a progression of movements where light/colour is compressed above the horizon as it moves towards night. This resonant, sometime sublime time, amrks a poignant moment of the day." He has exhibited widely all over the UK, including The Society of Landscape Painters, Christies, London Contemporary Arts and The Royal Academy. He has also had exhibitions in the USA and Hong Kong. Tom has work in various collections, including Christies Education and The Slaughter and May Collection.
