| Original Artwork For the last 31 years Ann has captured the true spirit of the countryside by projecting the very character of each wildlife subject into her detailed studies. Ann only works in watercolours and has developed a technique of building up thousands of colour washes to give an amazing intensity of colour to the study, whilst creating a tactile depth to the coat; this together with her ability to capture the very essence of the eye and expression, brings the animal to life. |
