Helen Wilson 
Artist

​​​

Helen began creating art in early childhood, developing a love for realism, colour theory and figure painting through drawing and acrylics. At 16 she studied screen printing and received a $20k scholarship to Idyllwild Arts Academy. She chose instead to move to New Zealand, to study at the University of Auckland and to continue growing her creative practice.

​

Helen began her creative journey with mixed media sculpture, receiving her first hot glue gun at age five! "A few years later I was asked to draw a portrait and quickly became determined to master realism. As an early teen I started painting with acrylics, where I developed a love for colour theory, abstract design, and figure painting."
