About Anna
Hello, my name is Anna and I am a Landscape and Still Life Painter. I live and work in the market town of Hitchin in Hertfordshire.
From an early age, I was imaginative and was often told off at primary school for staring out the window daydreaming. I also spent a considerable portion of my childhood hiding away reading.
My art grew and grew at GCSE and A-Level, largely helped by an incredible art teacher. I considered going to art school and then got swayed by a course in History and History of Art.
It was during the Covid pandemic that I got back into my art. A back injury from a horse riding fall meant I had to take a long period of sick leave from my office job. During this time I had a lot of time to think and do things and so I picked up a paint brush again and it felt amazing.
My art has since featured in Chelsea Art Society’s Summer Exhibition (2024) and the Hitchin Art Trail for two years running (since 2023).
