Tim Cantor was born north of San
Francisco in the summer of 1969. In 1975, Tim Cantor’s father
recognized his son's uncommon knowledge with drawing and went into his attic
in search of a box of oil paints and brushes that once belonged to Tim's
great grandfather. Tim immediately began painting with the same
supplies that his British ancestor had made a way of life with as an artist
as he traveled throughout Asia, Europe, and America nearly a century
earlier. Tim’s comprehension with oils was instantly visible, and his
obsession began. His first oil painting came at age five. By age
fifteen, Tim Cantor was given his first gallery exhibition where one of his
paintings was acquired to hang in the White House, thereby instigating an
immediate demand for his unusual talent. Throughout the following
years, his paintings would travel the world with exclusive exhibitions in
Athens, Tokyo, Singapore, Paris, Venice, New York, Beverly Hills and San
Francisco. Today, the diverse enthusiasts and collectors of his art
comprise of people from all parts of the world. One could say that
this mysterious artist possesses a rare combination of extraordinary talent
and unpredictability to set his name in the artistic history books of
tomorrow. Yet for now, Tim Cantor keeps far from the madding crowd,
shrouded in his studio, painting every night from midnight until morning.
