Julian Hindson was born in Yorkshire, UK in 1973 and currently
lives Auckland, New Zealand, where he paints in his East Tamaki
studio.
Hindson's love of painting grew from his mid-teens and as a
result of his education and work experience, his work now draws on
over 15 years of graphic design and art direction experience.
Hindson's work combines the stylised abstraction of familiar
images and the use of the painterly medium as a vehicle for
an exploration of texture. His landscapes feature multiple layers
of opaque and transparent glazes augmenting his use of
bold, rich colours and creating lacquer-like surfaces.
Hindson has held multiple exhibitions throughout the country and
his work can be found in collections throughout New Zealand, London
and New York.
