ANNA-MARIE Buss

I am a Kent based artist and designer and sell both nationally and internationally. My artistic influences, particularly those of the Surrealists and Pre-Raphaelites are often to be seen reflected in my paintings. I have an instinctive understanding of colour, how it is formulated and how to maximise its’ impact on the canvas. 

My draftsmanship skills, developed over the years as a designer are, I believe, another hallmark of my work resulting in what I like to think are well-crafted and composed paintings. Paintings which explore different ideas and aspects of being and that are not confined in style, medium or subject matter.
My intention is to create ‘real’ images entwined within an otherwise ‘unreal’ universe, my ultimate ambition being to evoke emotion and to challenge the viewer and their understanding of the world which they inhabit. 

This channel is a means of explaining the stories and symbolism behind the paintings and the source of inspiration and ideas. I hope you enjoy.
