Song Bird I Annie Smits Sandano ​Their origins lie in EgyptianFramed acrylic and gold leaf on board 550 x 550 x 65 Annie is primarily driven by an interest in investigating the basic interaction between line and colour via materiality and or process. My visual cues are broad: from painting to ceramics to printmaking, everything interests me.
