Collection: Alison Gilmore

Alison was born in Auckland, New Zealand near Narrow Neck Beach – a picturesque seaside locale that fostered her love of the ocean and often acts as inspiration for her art.

Alison’s art captures the timelessness of nuanced and textured beauty of the world around her. With delicate brushwork and bold colours, she creates timeless art in photo-realistic quality.

Alison paints paradise as she sees it, filling the absence of civilisation with the fullness of nature. The way light plays on pristine water, foliage and sand draws her creative spirit. Paint to canvas, canvas to evocative memories, her heart on display.

Alison’s painting journey started in 2001 with her first acrylic painting. She then went on to be represented by Palette, The Letham, Matakana and Exhibitions Galleries with sell out shows before changing to oil as a medium at The Tim Wilson Gallery where she was mentored by Tim Wilson, one of New Zealand’s most acclaimed landscape artists.

Through working with Tim and exhibiting in his exclusive gallery, Alison has increased her global profile, increased the value to her already very successful paintings and continues to learn about her craft and life.

Alison has also been published in five books and two magazines in New Zealand and the US.

Beyond her painting and mixed media art, Alison is a qualified graphic designer having worked in advertising and design for many years.

Alison feels extremely fortunate to have her work included in many galleries and publications and she would love to be featured in yours.
