Annie Williams (born 1942) is a water-colour artist who won the 2009 Turner Watercolour Award 〔http://www.royalwatercoloursociety.co.uk/member.aspx?memberid=543〕 Born in London, the daughter of artist Ivor Williams and Elizabeth Pocock, she grew up in Wales and trained and worked as a nurse before studying Fine Art at City and Guilds from 1966 to 1969. Her later work has been almost entirely still-life. She enjoys playing with shapes, pattern and colour, mixing the familiar with some abstraction, and precision with suggestion. Her foregrounds are a few simple objects, usually pots, and backgrounds are created from textiles or old newspaper cuttings, and even some unfinished paintings as a starting point. She has had one-woman shows at the Baker Tilly Gallery, Grape Lane Gallery and University of Warwick. Awards include a travel scholarship to Florence, ''The Artist'' Magazine Award at the Mall Galleries, and various awards from the RWS open exhibition ''21st Century Watercolour''. Annie is a Member of the Royal Watercolour Society and a senior fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. She has regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. In 2013, her exhibition "Still Life: Prints and Watercolours" was held at the University of Aberystwyth.〔http://www.aber.ac.uk/en/art/gallery-museum/exhibitions/annie-williams/〕 == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Annie Williams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
