Abigail Milnthorpe-Kent

Visual Artist

As a professional artist of the past seven years, my journey has had its fair share of ups and downs. However, each success has been a result of learning from my failures.

I find beauty not only in my work, but also in life itself. It's where I draw my inspiration, just like many artists throughout history. However, what sets my work apart is that it's created through my eyes and my understanding. As an artist, it's crucial to interact with other perspectives, as it helps me build creative concepts and offer a new lens for others to view the world through. Now, I hope to share my vision with you, and if I'm lucky, you'll feel the emotions I feel.

My Canvas

I specialize in acrylics and oil on canvas and surrealist concepts.

I have experience in various artistic mediums, but I have developed a profound connection with traditional painting. I fell in love with painting a long time ago and my love for it only grows stronger with time. Words cannot express my passion for it. I am particularly drawn to the sensation of the paint on the canvas and the vibrant colours that come to life on its surface.If you look closely, you may be able to see some of the joy hidden amongst my brushstrokes.
