Hello!
Thank you for visiting.
The shop is open for the pieces made for my Monster Trees exhibition at Colonnade House - the show was cancelled on its opening day but all pieces are available online.
A little bit about me:
A Finn born in France, I have lived in the UK most of my life, nowadays with my family near the seaside in Worthing, West Sussex.
Largely self-taught, I started Anna's Drawing Room a few years ago. I draw, paint and make prints featuring plants and landscapes, from both real and imagined places.
An ongoing printmaking project began late 2017, building a collection of screen prints featuring trees, forests and leafy plants, playing with layered textures. Slowly building on the series I've taken the work to print fairs, and art fair and open house festivals.
2019 was all about: moody landscapes, looming trees and rolling clouds. Textural layers in screen printing, with degrees of transparency in the ink.
Autumn/Winter was very busy with events and fairs, not to mention opening my own shop! Come and visit FOUND shop & studio in Worthing to see my work alongside many other artists' creations. Specialising in print and illustration, you can also find artist-made gifts and cards.
As a beloved project, I run an artists' open house, Ashdown Road Artists - approaching its 6th year. This is both fun and rewarding, and Worthing folk are really supportive of creative events in the town - we see many returning faces each time which is brilliant. We're lucky to have an amazing line-up of artists, plus a pretty cool feature... One Bum Cinema Club, showcasing amazing animations.
Last year our open house crew has joined me in two Art Jumble Sales, which were brilliant, busy and fun to boot.
Very exciting news: in a couple of weeks I'll be showing all my recent ink studies and sketches at Colonnade House Worthing. Please do come along between 17-28th March!
See my Etsy shop to buy prints and cards, and take a look at my Instagram for regular updates and stories.
