Malcolm Wilson
Wilson studied art and architecture in Durham and Newcastle in the early 70’s, winning a diploma in rendering and measured drawings by the Association of Northern Artists at only 16 and a referral to The Royal Academy in London. He progressed to University education to become a chartered architect and to partner a London Mayfair practice of over 14 designers.
He has contributed to several books on conservation in the Middle East and Southern England, has had urban work nominated in the Aga Khan Award for excellence in architectural design, received Civic Trust recognitions and an RIBA acknowledgement for excellence in private house designs.
He moved to Cumbria 18 years ago with exhibited paintings at the Royal Academy, The London Portrait , London West End, Brighton, Glasgow, Manchester and overseas.
Early sea paintings of Brighton and Hove included sky and cloud studies and sketchbooks of over two hundred pencil and oil renderings. More recent work has concentrated around Carlisle with its historical connections. He was described in the national press in 2009 as “ one of the emerging talents in British landscape art “.
His profession is still founded in architecture and his practice, Black Box Architects, is based in Carlisle but includes clients from London and overseas. Find him at blackboxarchitects.com
