Mental Blocks - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on shaped board Unframed 860 x 1200mm 2019 Signed, dated and ready to hang Protected with an archival UV varnish This is one of a series of large shaped paintings / wall sculptures that I created especially for a solo exhibition at Muse Art Gallery in Hawke’s Bay, NZ. These are the first really large ones that I’ve made, and it was a bit daunting at first to go so big, and also pretty challenging - I work on a table, so getting back far enough to see if the pseudo-3D aspect was…
Shady - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on canvas Framed with a timber tray frame 610x 610mm x 36mm 2017 Signed, dated and ready to hang The original sketch for this was done while waiting at the airport on the way home from a family funeral. It was my first 'dark' painting, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. I've decided to keep it on my own wall for now, I can't part with it yet! I really enjoy the very architectural forms of the 'shadows' and the way the (almost) white blocks appear to protrude from the…

Parallel Parking - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on canvas Unframed 915 x 1223 x 36mm 2018 Signed, dated and ready to hang Protected with an isolation coat and an archival varnish Although this appears to have a frame, it is in fact a ‘painted’ frame, part of the painting on the canvas. Like all of my other paintings (apart from a few experiments) this was painted entirely without the use of masking tape to create the straight edges - just a steady hand and a lot of practice. Personally, I prefer the flatter surface that this…
Bloom - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on canvas Framed in Tasmanian Oak 610x 610mm x 36mm 2017 Signed, dated and ready to hang I painted this in summer when the light was bright, the air was clear, and the flowers were out. It reminds me of having a glass of wine on a sunny Friday evening in the garden with my best friend. Like the other Coloured Shadows Series paintings, this one is playing with illusions of raised forms casting shadows from coloured lights (not literally - that is just the inspiration!). It appears…

Winter - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on box board Unframed 400 x 400 x 40mm 2018 Protected with an isolation coat and an archival UV varnish Signed, dated and ready to hang This, to me, represents winter - the colours and light of winter. Someone said to me that this painting is like looking up at a skylight. That’s perhaps pretty accurate, maybe I was subconsciously influenced by the skylight that sits above me as I paint, giving me a view of the sky and the weather outside. It’s all painted by hand, with no…

Memory - by Amanda Wilkinson
Acrylic on canvas 610 x 610 x 36mm Framed with a Tasmanian oak tray frame 2017 Signed, dated and ready to hang This was painted after a particularly difficult month for our family, with the deaths of two close family members and an old family friend. Three funerals in a month (and in mid-winter to

Inspiration can come from unlikely places - by Amanda Wilkinson
I’ve been asked a few times recently why I switched to being an artist, so here’s a not-very-brief answer to that question!
