About

Painting from life, on location

Tony Parsons painting on location

"Each of my paintings is a one-off — created with intent, spontaneity, and a deep connection to place."

I'm Tony Parsons, a professional plein air oil painter based in Brighton. I paint in oils on location around the world — from the Sussex coastline to the Bahamas, from the harbours of Monaco to the wilder shores of Cornwall.

Whether I'm knee-deep on a shoreline capturing the shimmer of reflected light, or on a clifftop wrestling with the movement of clouds, the goal is the same: to make something that holds your attention and earns its place on your wall.

I work primarily in 80×30cm and A3 formats — the panoramic format that suits a horizon. Paintings are created in a single session, then signed, framed, and certified with a TOAT provenance token before they reach a collector.

Prints of selected works are available through The Gillan Gallery — from small affordable editions to large hand-embellished prints.

Every original I sell carries a TOAT — The Original Art Trust — certification. An aluminium token is physically attached to the painting, linked to a permanent digital ownership record. It travels with the work forever.
