Phillip Edwards

Phillip was born in Wellington but most of his painting life has been spent in Auckland. He began under the guidance of his father, Henry Edwards, a professional artist/illustrator.

To explore different creative themes and broaden his experience he moved to Nelson in 1990, beginning some years of bookbinding and delving into three dimensional creative constructions combining painting, writing, binding and design. In 2008 he moved to Dunedin to further develop his painting career.

Phillip has exhibited in both Auckland and Nelson and his work can be found in private collections in the USA, United Kingdom, Australia, Fiji and throughout New Zealand.
