Lynne Wilkinson now dedicatesher time to my painting,  and  exhibits in local shows, galleries, restaurants and shops, in both Sheffield and Derbyshire, winning various Competitions throughout the UK over the years.

Lynne Wilkinson is a member of Peak District Products a Derbyshire based group of professional fellow artists who sheshare shows, exhibitions, ideas and exchange of views.

Her studio is based at Summerley near Dronfield, this tranquil rural environment has provided her artistic stimulation and inspiration with the opportunity to study her subjects on a daily basis at close quarters.

Lynne Wilkinson works directly on the canvas, she does not sketch out a plan, her pictures evolve in a similar way to arranging a pile of furniture in a room, ultimately everything has it place. She says she makes mistakes along the way, and make adjustments, but this is all part of the process of how she paint.
Completing a picture gives  a real buzz, but parting with it can be difficult. But there's no greater compliment when somebody buys my work and takes it into their home.- Lynne Wilkinson
