Tim Storrier has painted sites in Egypt, Africa, Turkey and the West coast of America. Earning the respect of the art world in 1968 at nineteen by being the youngest ever recipient of the Sulman Prize, he collected it again in 1984. This book explores Storrier’s themes and captures him painting in the studio or preparing a ‘blaze-line’ to be lit under a vast outback sky. Apart from the more familiar themes, in this book there are paintings that are lesser-known and expected to surprise.
