He was well known for his work in oils, watercolours, and drypoint, with a special focus on marine paintings. In addition to being a talented painter, Wilkinson also held roles as an illustrator, a poster artist, and a wartime camoufleur.

He furthered his studies with Louis Grier, a notable seascape painter. At just 21 years old, he ventured to Paris to study academic figure painting, but his passion for maritime subjects had already been ignited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe kicked off his illustration career in 1898 with his work being featured in The Illustrated London News. He continued to contribute to this publication for many years, as well as to the Illustrated Mail.
