AMANDA MULQUINEY-BIRBECK

 

Amanda Mulquiney-Birbeck is a British figurative painter. Her vibrant works often feature young, strong and glamorous women set in shallow  spaces. Often with an air of attitude yet tinged with melancholy. 

Her works combine candy colours with gold leaf, incorporating refined  blended painting techniques with looser, gestural brush marks. Often  contrasting bright, neon backgrounds with muted earthy and surreal  tones.

Influenced by Gustav Klimt, Peter Doig, Jonathan Yeo, Martina  Johanna and Peter Monkman amongst many more contemporary  painters. Mulquiney-Birbeck approaches her work using source imagery  from the internet and fashion magazines - creating a tension between  realism and painterly abstraction. 

Born in Berkshire, in 1987, she went onto graduate from Central Saint  Martin’s College of Art & Design London in 2009 with a first class  honours degree. Since graduating, her work has been shown in  galleries, event spaces, and published in industry-leading magazines.  Mulquiney-Birbeck has exhibited extensively throughout the UK and  has sold her work to both art-lovers and private collectors in the UK  and internationally.

EDUCATION
Fine Art (BA Hons), Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design,  University of the Arts London. First Class Honours Degree.
