Anna's Art

In the artist's words

ARTIST STATEMENT

I am an intuitive painter and trust my paintings will guide me. My work explores memory, identity, connection and nature.Through expressive brushstrokes, layered surfaces and recurring patterns, I create paintings inspired by nature, personal experience and my life between Australia and Italy. I create connections in my work, through circles and threads, between people, places and memories. I create paintings that invite the viewer to pause, feel and reflect.

BIOGRAPHY

Australian artist based in Italy Treviso.
I am a creative painter that for years has been an "Early Years" art teacher; I have learnt a lot from my "little ones". My painting process begins with freedom. I create an underpainting with all sorts of mixed media, inks and whatever, without a fixed idea, then I look for shapes, emotions and subjects that begin to emerge. This is what I have taught to my little students. Trust the painting to guide you. Respond to what you see. And they have taught be that there are no mistakes in art that it is ok to be different. My subjects come to me rather than I plan for them. Colour, texture and gesture suggests what the painting wants to become and I follow.
