Profile

Anna Perlin



The inspiration for my paintings comes from subjects I have a passion for and the British countryside is a continuing theme in my work.

Growing up deep in the heart of Oxfordshire, I have always had a love of the outdoors and nature and I try to reflect this in my paintings which are often free from human presence. I don’t use a set colour palette, preferring to mix new colours for each painting in order to capture the ever changing British seasons and weather and to create a window onto the calm and peace of the country side. Texture is an important part of my paintings as life is never flat, and I use a palette knife to put paint onto the canvas.

After graduating in Textile Design in 2001 I started exhibiting my paintings in local shows and now paint full time. As well as being represented by several UK galleries my work has been shown at The London Art Fair, the Affordable Art Fairs and the Mall Galleries.
