About me

My name is Gillian Jonker. I’m an artist, living in Limerick city.

I’ve been drawing and painting since I was a child and have always had a preference for people as my subject matter. My style is inspired by pop art, using a limited palette to create a modern, graphic portrait.

All my portraits are painted from photos, so there’s no need to sit for hours. I paint in acrylic paints on stretched canvas and I generally prefer to paint in square format.

I’m a nice, friendly person, so if you aren’t sure what size or colour you'd like your portrait to be in, give me a call or send me an email – I’m happy to discuss options and ideas.
