About Me
- Angie
- My name is Angie Wood and I live on a narrowboat on the beautiful Oxford canal. A long time ago in the eighties I studied Art and Design at Goldsmiths College and went on to be a paste up artist and then a graphic designer. I’ve never stopped painting and drawing though – I painted pet and animal portraits for a while and over the past two years have begun creating small oil paintings of vintage objects, textiles and flowers. I collect items from fleamarkets to paint and my little narrowboat is getting fuller all the time! I’m particularly delighted by colourful patterns on textiles and ceramics and I also love painting reflective surfaces. I’m usually attracted to items from the early part of the twentieth century, which bring back memories of my great aunts’ and grandmother’s cosy houses. My artistic aim is to pay homage to the things I paint by observing them as closely as I can, and to create something beautiful that will hopefully make people as happy as I was when I was making it!

Hi Annie,
I hope you keep blogging as those sketches are lovely. I was blog hoping and came across yours. I started my blog for the same reason..to try and motivate me.
I lived on a boat for 4 years on Moreton Bay in Queensland, so there is not too much room to store paints.
Cheers Sharon
Annie, love your latest pen and ink sketches. A bin bag to a dog is like a Dreamland mattress to us I guess. As to the spammers, set the blog up so that you have to "approve" the comments before they are posted. It's easier at that stage to just select them and delete them. If you want more info on how just shout!
