Tara Wilkinson is an award-winning Canadian fine art photographer and mixed media artist. Through her art, she explores themes of joy, love, spirituality, nature and human nature. Born in Toronto, Ontario CANADA, Tara has travelled extensively, photographing in over 25 countries ... and counting.

From behind the lens, Tara captures the details hidden from most. Her soulful images take the viewer on a visual journey.

In June 2020, the Prince Edward County Arts Council announced that Tara's photograph "The Sea is a Harsh Mistress" (Tickle Cove, Newfoundland) won a Juror's Award at the Art in the County Juried Exhibition and Sale. The online show ran from June 18-July 31, 2020 at www.artinthecounty.com.

Tara studied photography at Centennial College, Ryerson University and Sir Sandford Fleming College's Haliburton School of the Arts, where she also graduated with a diploma in Expressive Arts. Tara also graduated with a diploma in Corporate Communications from Centennial College.

Wilkinson has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions. Tara's current exhibition "ODE to JOY" showcases photographs from around her beloved Prince Edward County home.

Just previous, "ELEVATIONS" (Aug 1- Sept. 30th, 2020) featured new works from Tara’s exploration of Arizona - photographed earlier this year just before COVID-19 changed the world. From high above and deep within its magnificent canyons to the wide-open road, Tara’s soulful images take one on a visual journey.

Tara’s solo exhibition “AMORE” was part of the 2017 Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival at the Joseph D. Carrier Gallery in Toronto.

The featured image, "In the Light of Loneliness", won both First Place and the People's Choice Award at the CLIC Eastern Ontario Photo Show in 2016. Shot in Venice, Italy, the limited edition print depicts an elderly man shuffling through a piazza, the windows in front of him beautifully reflecting the surrounding buildings and sky.

Her work has been featured in newspapers and magazines, on television and radio. Tara’s photographs are held in private collections world-wide. Tara's framed photographic prints, photo books, calendars, posters and greeting cards can be purchased through ANDARA Gallery.

Members of the year-round Prince Edward County Arts Trail since 2009, Tara and her husband, encaustic painter Andrew Csafordi welcome thousands of art lovers, buyers and collectors to their galleries year-round.

In 2015, Tara & Andrew were recognized by the Prince Edward County Arts Council with a Business Excellence Award for their contribution to the Arts in their community. In both 2018 and 2019, they earned Trip Advisor’s Certificate of Excellence as a 5-star rated destination.

In 2019, Tara and Andrew were thrilled to complete construction on their new ANDARA Gallery, now open year-round, 11 AM to 5 PM daily.
