ANN HODGKINSON

Being surrounded by the flora and fauna of rural NW Tasmania has inspired my paintings and drawings. The dynamic nature of plants and trees beckon me to portray them in strong colour and unconventional compositions, whilst still attempting to follow the discipline of botanical art. I use graphite, ink and watercolour on smooth hot press paper which allows me to produce the fine detail, which is also a feature of my work. Many hours fly past in the intriguing study of nature!
