Ginger Wilson

Ginger Wilson is a mixed media artist living in Kearney, Nebraska. In her early work, she created assemblage art using found objects, sometimes incorporated fiber. Her current art can range from monoprinting and painting, to art quilts and stitched portraits. Often they include a combination of these. Her most recent work focuses on flowers and nature, using monoprints and painting.

"I love to use bright colors and lots of pattern when creating my art. I see so many possibilities in my surroundings. I may use grasses and leaves to patina metal or I may use them for monoprinting. I have a penchant for vintage things and rusty bits and they may find their way into my art.

Most recently I have been exploring flowers and nature. I include monoprints as a collage element, for their strong color and contrasting patterns. I start with a general idea for a piece, and let it evolve as I work. Sometimes the best pieces bloom from only seeing the next step and not envisioning the final result."
