ARTIST INFO

About 

Ania Hobson is well known for her signature aesthetic and architectural portrait style. Inspired by painters such as Alice Neel and Kerry James Marshall, the artist uses both traditional and contemporary elements of portraiture to make the pieces uniquely her own. Watching the artist work, Ania sketches her subjects directly onto canvas using pencil & charcoal. Working swiftly can often create a more natural and fluid look. Ania also maintains this fast-paced style of work by pre-mixing colours and skin tones in her own tubes and layering paint to create an impasto style of work.
