About Aimee Gallagher
Aimee Gallagher is a fine artist based in Norfolk. She studied History of Art at Cambridge University and went on to work in the studio of Damien Hirst. She has been working on intricately detailed oil, gouache and watercolour paintings inspired by nature since 2012 and it is this detail that makes her work come alive. Her passion lies in focusing on the tiny patterns found in surface form and texture, detail that is often overlooked by the naked eye. She won the Society of Women artist's award for Young Artist of the year in 2013 at the Mall Gallery, London and went on to exhibit works at several London venues, including Show Your Face, Vyner Street, Gallery 223, Waterloo and Dazed and Refused, Bethnal Green. She has had three drawing instruction books published by Arcturus and has recently been writing children's educational books with Quarto. It Starts with a Raindrop has just been released. Since having children she moved with her family to her hometown of Norwich. She is currently working on a series of large scale oil paintings focusing on the detail of butterfly's wings removed from the context of form.
