Philip Lindsey teaches painting, drawing, and computer graphics, and also directs/curates the Bogigian Gallery at Wilson College. He is a painter who makes both abstract and representational imagery. Since 2003, he has engaged the figure and primarily representational painting and drawing, focusing on the density and complexity of experience within relationships. His current work addresses portraiture, allegory and metaphor through biblical, mythological, legendary and contemporary themes. His interest in the art of the past continues to inform his decisions in the medium, and inspire new ideas for future investigation with applications of direct as well as indirect painting processes.

Lindsey has received a number of awards for his work, both abstract and representational in national and international juried competitions and exhibitions. He is a recipient of the Donald F. Bletz Award for Outstanding Devotion to the Art of Teaching (2001), The Paul Swain Havens Research Scholars Award (2002-2003), a Summer Research Stipend (2006), Humanities Division Scholars Award (2006), and Sabbatical Leave (2007).
