Annie Williams was born in 1942 in London but grew up in Wales. She trained and worked as a nurse before studying Fine Art at City and Guilds from 1966 to 1969.
Her recent 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 Warwick University. 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 an Associate Member of both the Royal Watercolour Society and the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers.
