Artist

Amanda Wigglesworth

Amanda Wigglesworth’s work is based on paint as process, layers of oil paint, collage and textured pastes are applied onto the canvas. By taking paint off and reapplying, an image is built up before being disrupted. The surface becomes a harmony of colour and texture, revealing paintings of fantastic depth that although abstract, have definite forms, shapes and figures.

Born in Wilmslow in 1960 Amanda holds a BA(Hons) History of Art and Design with Practice from Manchester Metropolitan, and has exhibited widely in both group and solo shows.
