Information about Me - ANNIE
I have always been creative and was encouraged by my high school to attend the Northern Cape College of ART outside of school hours. Here I had the opportunity to undertake a course which was much like a foundation course, allowing me to explore ceramics, painting, printing, graphic art and art history.
Since coming to the UK I have had two solo exhibitions (2000 and 2003) at St Georges Hospital Tooting Broadway as part of the National Network for the Arts in Health http://www.nnah.org.uk/. I also took part in the Living London exhibition held at the London School of Fashion in central London in 2004. In addition to this I prepared a series of paintings for an exhibition put on by All Saints, Peckham, at Easter time 2005 called 'CROSS' http://www.allsaintspeckham.org.uk/. These pieces are still available for viewing at the church. In 2003 I commenced a part time foundation course at Chelsea College of Art - University of the Arts London, and after just one year was accepted at Wimbledon College of Art (now part of the University of the Arts London). I was able to complete half of my degree before the arrival of my sons.

About Mono-print
Mono-prints are one of the most effective types of print. Although it seems simple, not everyone gets on with this sort of print. I personally love it as it is instant and one can use it on-site, it is a versatile sort of print and it also allows for the creation of quite detailed images.
The process is as follows:
The process is as follows:
- Roll block print ink (slow drying ink) onto a perspex or glass sheet;
- Ensure there is just the right amount of ink, too much ink and the print will be blotchy. Too little ink and you wont have a print at all;
- Then place lightly on top of the ink a sheet of light weight paper - news print is the best;
- then, using a pencil draw on the paper (bearing in mind that any writing will need to be reversed in order for the print to be readable) try ensure that only the tip of the pencil is in contact with the paper because wherever you press the ink will adhere to the paper.
- Finally peel back the news print paper and dry your print.
