Tim Houghton is a New Zealand-based artist known for his expressive and dynamic painting style.

His impactful and vibrant work will not fail to impress.
Workshop: We are very happy to announce that Tim will be running a workshop on Sunday the 29th of March
Tim is fascinated by the colours and vibrancy of the world’s cultures and peoples and the challenge of capturing these visual experiences on paper or canvas. His passion for travel has taken him to over 60 countries—most recently Morocco, Eastern Europe, India, Spain and the Pacific Islands.
Alongside his artistic journey, he has been deeply involved in social work, supporting refugees and marginalised communities. His faith plays a central role in his life and creative practice, reflecting a deep appreciation for beauty, movement and storytelling through art.
Tim says, “For as long as I can remember, a cluster of interests—art, world cultures, people, travel and faith—have resurfaced in various combination like a giant Rubik’s cube, to define the direction of my life and work.
Having lived for the last 25 years in New Zealand, Tim paints in watercolour and acrylics in his home studio.
