Amanda Wilkinson

"With a background in industrial design and a fascination with architecture, I draw inspiration from the structural elements and geometric forms found in the built environment. These influences show up in my paintings as a subtle nod to architectural compositions, incorporating lines, shapes, and proportions reminiscent of man-made structures. However, I don’t aim to replicate these forms in a literal sense. Instead, I use them as a starting point to convey memories, moods, and a sense of place".
