Anna studied Art Education at Bretton Hall, graduating in 1997.

Years later, while working as a mental health nurse, she came back to art during a challenging time and found it helped her slow down, focus, and reset.

She mainly works with pen and ink, enjoying the simplicity of limited colour, clean composition, and the use of negative space. Her style draws on Japanese woodblock prints, natural history illustration, and the calming, repetitive nature of detailed mark-making.

Art and nursing continue to sit side by side in her life, each one supporting the other and shaping a practice that feels steady, thoughtful, and quietly reflective.
