Anne Payton is an artist who works mainly in oil paint. She trained in theatre design and worked at a range of renowned theatres from The Watermill to The National. Now working from a studio in Berkshire, her work transgresses many different subjects, from still lives and landscapes to thematic character paintings. She creates vividly textural and dynamic oil paintings and watercolours, inspired by a variety of elements. She also prints lithographs using an antique press and lithographic stones. Sculpture comes into Anne's work, in her immersive exploration of a theme.
