get in touch.Anna's independent work focuses on oil painting and screen printing, favouring these mediums because of the vivid pigments and textures that can be achieved. Bold colour is integral, and compositions explore interactions between abstract forms and vibrant hues. Some compositions are inspired by architectural structures and play with angular shapes and perspectives. Others are improvisations developed on the canvas and are composed of whimsical shapes.
