The Golden Child

Aaminah Snowdon – The Golden Child

Aaminah was born in 1990 in Northallerton, North Yorkshire and is a self-taught artist. Her avid interest in art started at the age of 7 when she won a school competition by painting a rather surreal whale blowing out multi-coloured water spouts.

Background

In 2012, after earning herself a 1st class honours degree in Ancient History at The University of Birmingham, she decided to pursue a career in art, with a focus on developing her own unique style that would combine her interests: animals, humour, eccentricity, bold colours and energy.

Style

Visiting art museums is a favourite past time of hers. Aaminah appreciates the vast array of painting styles, composition and subject matter and favours the eccentric and unusual. Being an animal-lover, she is drawn to artwork depicting animals.
As such, Aaminah’s artwork revolves exclusively around British wildlife, farm animals and pets. Working on watercolour paper using acrylic paints – she paints using lively and spontaneous brushstrokes with bold, vibrant colours – to impress the quirkiness, movement and character of her subjects into the painting. She completes each painting with its own witty and fun title.

Interests

Aaminah Snowdon ‘Morning’! moreover show her love of all animals that started at a very young age. She was always keen to rescue animals. Her fondness for animals has persevered up to this day – for she continues to rescue animals. Additionally, she regularly donates a percentage of her profits to animal charities – notably The Wildlife Haven in Thirsk, North Yorkshire.
Aaminah Snowdon has worked hard to create a distinctive, exclusive brand of artwork that is found in galleries and shops across the UK and abroad.
