Nathan Wilkinson draws inspiration from colour and texture.
“I describe my work as contemplative with undertones of the dark and light elements of life”
“I start painting by working with a few colours I think work well together and more often than not them image becomes either abstract or figurative, sometimes silly and absurd and often by a process of trial and error” .
“I take a lot of inspiration from rust and scratches on metal and steel objects such as rubbish skips and shipping containers, things that are in a state of breaking down or decay. I find beauty in these marks, the flaking pain and the slow hand of time, working away silently.
