Hello! @tomrtwilmott here for my #toaftakeover! You may recognise me from such promotional material as #theotherartfairldn ‘s posters and ticket designs (that’s me on the right, alongside fellow exhibitor @mimma_art )! Needless to say I’m absolutely thrilled to be showing in my home town of London again. Having had such a great time at #theotherartfair in March (swipe through to see my March stand), I know the October Fair is going to be an absolute blast! . #art#contemporaryartpainting#contemporarypainting#abstract#abstractpainting#abstractart#artist#artistsoninstagram#arte#kunst#gallery#exhibition#minimal#minimalist#reductive#reductiveart#friezeartfair#painter#gallery#artgallery#artcollector#formalism#frieze#abstraction#privateview#artiststudio#artshow#takeovertuesday

@tomrtwilmott #TOAFtakeover: I work from my home studio in South West London. I have held studios all over the city for close to 20 years, but have always considered my best work to be that which was made when working form home. This being the case, my wife @alexvwilmott (also an artist) and I converted one room of our house for me to work in and built a studio for her at the back of the house. It’s a great dynamic as we each have our own space we can go to when we need to concentrate, but also we’re always around to help eachother out – I frame her work, she photographs my paintings and performs photoshop witchcraft to make them look great on screen! . #art#contemporaryartpainting#contemporarypainting#abstract#abstractpainting#abstractart#artist#artistsoninstagram#arte#kunst#gallery#exhibition#minimal#minimalist#reductive#reductiveart#friezeartfair#painter#gallery#artgallery#artcollector#formalism#frieze#abstraction#privateview#artiststudio#artshow#takeovertuesday#theotherartfair

@tomrtwilmott #TOAFtakeover: Last month I showed alongside @viviennehaigstudio at the wonderful @zemblagallery in Hawick, Scotland. For the show I made a new series of 17 paintings titled ‘The Humming Wires’. This collection marked a significant turning point in my practice and helped me understand a lot about why I work the way I do. Showing with Zembla was an absolute joy from start to finish and I urge you all to pay them a visit! . #art#contemporaryartpainting#contemporarypainting#abstract#abstractpainting#abstractart#artist#artistsoninstagram#arte#kunst#gallery#exhibition#minimal#minimalist#reductive#reductiveart#friezeartfair#painter#gallery#artgallery#artcollector#formalism#frieze#abstraction#privateview#artiststudio#artshow#takeovertuesday#theotherartfair
