OVERGROWN (Studio exhibition)

These paintings celebrate weeds, wildness and the untameable resilience of plant-life.

The reclamation by nature of marginal or disused pieces of land has long been a theme running through my work, and now focus is shifting towards details of the vegetation I find there.

Loose washes of ink and quick, fluid layers of oil and pencil on paper capture the random, scattered beauty of these weeds and their surroundings and encourage an appreciation for the vital role they play in our fragile ecosystems.

I'm delighted to welcome you to my studio exhibition at my home near Gordon in the Scottish Borders. Access by car is tricky (down a bumpy farm track) and parking limited so I'm asking visitors to park in Gordon Community Woodland and take a beautiful 5/10 minute walk through the woods. 

Here is the location for parking:

Please be aware that the entrance to the woodland is not well signposted and is easy to miss.

From the car park you'll take the all ability path on your left heading towards Gordon Village. The path takes you straight to my house/studio just after you cross a small bridge. There will be signs, and look out for the pirate flag!

If you have mobility issues and would like to access the exhibition, please get in touch - ak@anna-king.com - we can chat about other options and I will do my best to accommodate you.
