Art and painting have always played important roles in Anne's life. In 1998, Anne made the decision to leave her profession as a Scientist and return to University to study Art and Education. Her Degrees in Visual Art, Science and Secondary Education have enabled her to combine her love of making art with teaching Art and Science.
In her art practice Anne enjoys creating paintings and 3D objects, using a variety of media ranging from oils and acrylics to plant fibres and found objects. Her works of Art oscillate between quiet and contemplating to bold and powerful. Anne is interested in exploring the link between the two extremes. She has exhibited in New Zealand and Brisbane, and has conducted successful painting workshops for teachers and children.
Anne's philosophy on art and creativity has been shaped over the years by artists such as Judy Watson, Rosalie Gascoigne, Hossein Valamanesh and Emily Kam Kngwarray.
