Starting painting later in life after a successful fashion business, Ann has used her knowledge and flair for shape, colour and line in her paintings.
Her canvases are mainly abstract and organic, expressing a free and flowing merging of colour, telling a story in her own language.
Ann's inspiration is from nature which she represents in organic shape and colour.
Her use of colour is a strong element in all of her work., Ann paintings are in acrylic and mixed media, using collage when she feels the painting would benefit.
