About Tiril Benton

 
 
  • Biography
    I was born and raised in London, England and now reside in Huntsville, Alabama. Primarily self-taught, I am an intuitive painter. The desire to paint came upon me suddenly and intensely after the death of my mother in 2001. It was completely unexpected; I had no preconceived notions to ever become an artist. Each piece over the last twenty years has manifested with the same unpredictable intensity. It is a force that has to be followed. I am merely a channel for these powerful archetypal concepts to manifest themselves through. 

    To me, a work of art is nothing unless it is shared. My vision is to extend the reach of the work with integrity to the collective in the most efficient way possible.
