In Unison Drawing

Described by Impressions magazine as a passionate and seductive painter Bildner's riotous use of colour affirms this view. The paintings are in definite, almost aggressively joyous, dialogue with the viewer and their presence is hard to ignore. New Yorks Village Voice declared Bildner's work to be varied and vital enough to renew a jaded spirit. Frances Bildner is represented in collections throughout Europe and America.Frances Bildner is a professional painter who has exhibited widely in both Europe and The United States. I was born in Argentina and lived there as a child. I then grew up in London. I spent 15 years in New York and am now back in London. I love travel and the diverse artistic influences which one encounters en route! I paint from my imagination. Much of my work stems from my subconscious. I am influenced by both the Abstract Expressionists and German Expressionists. The most important element for me in painting is colour. Everything I want to say is translated through colour and movement. I use colour in quite an emotive way. My paintings often provoke strong reactions. I paint in bold colours, which probably accounts for my dislike of water-colours. I have sold to private collectors, offices and restaurants, and have exhibited in Europe and the United States.I started painting at a young age. I think I was inspired to go into the wonderful world of Art after having won an art competition at the age of 13 where Sir Charles Wheeler, the past president of the Royal Academy wanted to buy my painting!.I write stream of consciousness poetry and combine some poetry with the paintings.I paint from my imagination. Much of my work stems from my subconscious. I am influenced by both the Abstract Expressionists and German Expressionists.
