Olivia Wileman was born in 1994 and graduated from Nottingham Trent University in Fine Art in 2016.

Olivia’s abstract oil paintings are multi-scale and utilize colour through layering and mark making, focusing on creating a balance between forms and gestural marks. Her brightly coloured oil paintings utilise a combination of colour, layering and mark making, focusing on creating a balance between forms and gestural marks. She encompasses collaging techniques with materials such as oil, paper, and pieces of raw canvas shredded into shapes.

Living and painting in Nottingham, Olivia has exhibited in galleries across the UK.
