About

Based in England, Ann is a self-taught artist who became a full-time painter when she moved to Cornwall in 2021.

Ann, a versatile artist, combines traditional and modern materials to create vibrant, contemporary paintings. Her semi-abstract style captures the emotive essence of the Cornish countryside and still life subjects, conveying a range of mood, place and feeling.

Artist’s statement:

I am inspired by the potential to create paintings that transcend mere representation, inviting the viewer into an interpretive exploration of form, texture, and light through the use of shapes, brushstrokes, and shading.

In my paintings, I strive to capture a unique mood and sense of place, whether in landscape or still life. By looking beyond the obvious, I aim to portray the distinctiveness of my subjects, moving from direct observation to imagination.
