Humans have long been fascinated by owls, they display so many anthropomorphic characteristics, we cannot help but see them as endearing charicatures of ourselves.Their voices have a mournful human quality, encouraging humans to place their nocturnal fears and fantasies on the shoulders of the owl. The call of the Tawny owl is often used by radio/t.v./film producers to add a hint of mischeif and strange goings on…These are unique pieces using mix media and taxidermy materials to create engaging and transfixing paintings, capturing the enigmatic air of mystery which surrounds these nocturnal birds.Anna studied BA Art & Aesthetics at University Of Wales, Cardiff and MA Book Arts at Camberwell College of Arts, and has work in the Tate collection of Artists Books, Camberwell College Special Collections, as well as many private collectors.She is a founder member of the artist/design collective Garudio Studiage where she has added her illustrations to various products sold in select boutiques across London and Tokyo and has helped curate and organise various projects and exhibitions including ‘Acrylic Kitten’ at the Ada Street Gallery; ‘Whose In the Hutch’ at The V & A Village Fete, and ‘Sense’ Charity Shop Window Display for ‘I Love Peckham’ festival 2007.
