About the Artist
Born and bred in WA, Annette’s interest in watercolours began in early childhood when she painted with her grandfather, a skilled watercolourist.
Study, work and family intervened and in 2009 she finally realised her lifelong ambition to study watercolour. Having attended Claremont School of Art, Bathurst University vacation courses and many workshops with noted Australian and overseas masters, she is now exhibiting her own work.
A Watercolour Society committee member for five years and secretary for three and a half, Annette enjoys being involved in the Society and its activities and is generally happy with a paintbrush in her hand
