ELECTED IN 1993
Born in St. Asaph, Flintshire, Ann Lewis PRCA studied at the Art College in Bangor and then at Exeter College of Art and Design. After graduating in Graphic Design at Exeter in 1988, she returned to Wales, where she worked as a freelance designer and illustrator.
"A gradual move from designer to fine artist began in 1993 when I was elected a member of the Royal Cambrian Academy. In April 2014, I was elected Vice-President of the Academy and in 2020, was elected President.
Since 2009, I’ve worked full time as a printmaker, specialising in the reduction method of linocutting. I produce small editions of hand-printed original linocuts in my studio in the Conwy Valley in North Wales. My work is inspired largely by the Welsh landscape, its mountains, rivers, waterfalls and coastline.
I exhibit widely across the UK and have work in the National Library of Wales’ collection, the Government‘s Art Collection and The Grosvenor Museum, Chester’s Print Collection."
