Maxine Williams Artist & Studio

Maxine Williams is full-time practicing artist, living and working in Clyde, Central Otago. Maxine shows regularly in group and solo exhibitions and her work is in galleries around New Zealand. Although classically trained as a painter, filmmaking has always run alongside her fine art practice - sometimes intersecting in surprising ways.

Her paintings alternate between expressive abstraction and beautifully executed realism. Layers of acrylic are built up to give the sense of depth and form. Sometimes her backgrounds are stark white amplifying the subject which has often been well thought out in advance. Underlying her work is a strong desire to communicate and connect with the viewer, work that bridges cultures

The artist is willing to paint commissions. Further enquiries are welcomed or to arrange a visit to her studio in Clyde.
