Encounter
By tim smith
Encounter reflects on the idea that the word “paradise” originates from the Persian for “walled garden” — a space both protected and open to discovery. This painting belongs to a series in which each work takes a nine-letter title, exploring the layered meanings that single words can hold.
Here, Encounter suggests the moment of unexpected meeting or experience, when something shifts and a boundary is crossed. The painting invites quiet contemplation of how we meet the world — sometimes by chance, sometimes by grace — and how such moments can feel like stepping briefly into paradise. The painting comes presented in a simple natural aged oak flat batten frame, 0.5 cm in width, and is ready to hang with supplied wire.

About the artist
Tim's work is driven by a fascination with the changing world, contemporary culture and the history of art. These are often mixed together in what he wants to be a spontaneous blend of images rich in cultural references, held together by passages of pure painting and lyrical colour in a "new representationalism"
