Anna is a multidisciplinary Artist and Designer working predominantly with print and textiles.
She studied Fine Art Painting and Printmaking at Glasgow School of Art and graduated with a First Class Bachelors (Hons). Her fine art background shapes the textile works she creates and the costumes she designs and makes. These influences are often translated into detailed hand drawn elements, painterly mark making and hand painted and printed graphics.
Anna is a costume designer and maker for film, TV and theatre, specialising in costume design and making for contemporary dance artists.
