Amelia Jenkinson

My interest in portraiture was triggered by my admiration of the figurative painter's ability to give the human form a sense of presence. This is a challenge which is central to my work, as I attempt to capture the unique character and energy of each person I paint. My paintings demonstrate both a desire to portray a likeness, whilst also preserving a degree of spontaneity in paint application that gives the portrait a sense of life and movement.​
I am currently taking commissions, so if interested, please don't hesitate to contact me at
