Tim Houghton 
Artist

​​

Tim Houghton is a New Zealand-based artist known for his expressive and dynamic painting style. With a degree in Fine Art from Cardiff College of Art in Wales, he spent two decades in the San Francisco Bay Area, exhibiting his work in solo and group shows. 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. Travel drives Tim’s creative soul...he has visited over 60 countries, finding inspiration most recently in Eastern Europe and Morocco.

​

Alongside his artistic journey, Tim 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 has called New Zealand home for over 25 years, painting in mostly watercolour and acrylics from his home studio.
