ANNA PAINTER – ARTIST’S STATEMENT
With a deep love of wide-open spaces and a fascination with ever changing cloud formations, my aim is to capture a moment in time. Moments exist outside of the constraints of minutes, hours, days, a lifetime. Life is made up of a series of moments. The work draws the viewer into the painting, into the moment.
Working in oil as chosen medium I love to witness the slow emergence of a composition from simply
applying the first layer and allowing the work to develop freely, without the use of any references. I love the softness and subtlety achievable through the malleability of oil paint and enjoy the result

achieved by blending many colours to produce multiple shades of white and a depth of field.
