Bio 2021Terry Wilkinson is a Brisbane based artist. As a retired Midwife and a Nurse, she has spent the last 30 of 50 years specialising in portraits, mainly of babies in her care, giving them to the mothers as a memento of their achievements in birthing, regardless of the type of delivery and outcome.
She focuses on the babies she has helped into this world, sick neonates in the Special Care Nursery, babies of mums that have had a 'hard time' and the sad cases of Stillbirth.She believes her ability to capture their essence is a gift and as such, gifted them on to the parents. These portraits have travelled all over the world. She does not advertise as all her commissions are word of mouth or direct contact. Her sharing is her Instagram site to her friends and those who follow her.
Her mediums are graphite, watercolour, pastel, acrylic and now oils. Terry does portraits of humans and pets, homes and also likes to capture the landscapes about her (sometimes finding a world of faeries seen only by her..) Commissions welcome.With no formal training, Terry is a self proclaimed Portrait Artist, Seamstress, Potter, Spinner, Weaver, Maker of Medicine Drums and anything she sets her mind to. Her philosophy is, if you say you "can't" do something you are telling your ‘Inner You’ that it is not possible. Believe me, you can do "anything" you set your mind to. “There is no limit to ones potential”
