About Anna Allworthy
Anna Allworthy is renowned for her atmospheric, layered urban landscapes.
Consistent influences in Anna's work are extensive travel, the effects of globalization, and a fascination with the ever-evolving nature of cities, all of which are reflected in this new collection of work.
The works are initially conceived as traditional pen and charcoal sketches. Having truly investigated her subject and captured its essence through the process of drawing, Anna then introduces diversely sourced material, adding photography, texture, accent, and color to the narrative of the piece.
Born in Canterbury in 1979 I Graduated in Fine Arts from the Kent Institute of Art and Design, later studying photography in Nottingham.
From my early childhood I have always been interested in Painting and now work as a full-time artist based in Kent. My use of color, mark making, textures, and dynamic compositions creates my personal signature. The vibrant interpretations of semi-abstract Harbour reflections and cityscapes reflect my passion for color. I also enjoy mixed media, experimenting with various materials such as photos, fabric, handmade paper as well as paint to create a heavily textured painting.
I have traveled extensively all around the world and these experiences have hugely inspired my series of Cityscapes and Abstracts. I recently spent time in Morocco and it is set to be the subject of a whole new series of work.

Anna is represented by numerous galleries in the UK, Ireland, as well as in Ireland, Majorca, Scotland, and Norway. Her artworks can be found in both private and corporate collections worldwide. She also undertakes a wide variety of commissions.

(Click our picture to listen to the original cassette recording)
If ever it's a rainy day
I pack myself up in my room
Then chase all the clouds away
Get myself back to you
Chorus:
Well I know that you're going to cry
Tears are running from your eyes
A piece of my love you take
Is one that so often break
If ever you're miles away
I'll think of you the way you are
Your shining hair your ruby lips
Then it don't seem quite so far
Harmonica lament break:
Chorus:
Very long jam session:

(A song about getting over from being bullied)
You might think I've hidden my shame
of things I've said and done
Who am I to play this silly game?
When there's no way to tell if I've won
No way to tell if I've won
Chorus:
I won't touch
No, I won't feel
Won't hurt as much because it won't even seem real
Won't feel pain
No, and I won't feel sorrow
I'll just wait and wonder who I am tomorrow
Quick Harmonica break:
And freedom is something that everybody needs
But you can't chase it blindly
You can't run but must walk proud
No peace of mind comes with its finding
Peace of mind sure is fine, sure is fine
I'd like to find peace of mind
(Chorus)
Eclectic guitars and forsaken dreams
Are kept in closets to hide them
I think it's time to open up the doors
To do our best to find them
Do our best to find them
(Refrain)
Oh yeah!
It's time to touch
Yes it's time to feel
It's going to hurt so much
But it's the only way I'll heal
I'll feel pain and soon I'll feel sorrow
I'll wake up knowing
I'm so happy
So happy
Tomorrow
