イラストの世界にあなたをつなぐ
Born on Ascension Island in the South Pacific, Anne Wilson now lives in the much less remote town of Reading. Growing up, she loved picture books and one day decided that telling a story through pictures was something she’d quite like to do for a job. Today, it doesn’t feel like a job at all to her, and in addition to children’s publishers she works for magazines, newspapers, charities, and museums and galleries.
Winner 2011 The Serco Prize For Illustration, run by Transport For London.
Anne Wilson has an MA in illustration from Central St Martins College of Art, London and been an illustrator for over 15 years.
Much of her work is inspired by everyday life, pattern, colour and shape. She incorporates figurative elements, layers and textures, with mixed media, print making and computer techniques.
Her images are constructed in layers, rolling out backgrounds with printing inks, onto which she creates more layers. Stencils, intricately cut and mono printed papers, collage, acrylic washes, painted details and drawing are all part of the process. Some of her images are created entirely in Photoshop, others are created entirely by hand.
