Goodnight Rosie, 2024

Annabel Warne’s work draws upon her deep love of animals and our connection to them as humans. 
This interplay of species is often a tender moment or fleeting encounter, with an underlying sense of calm. Her use of dreamlike colour and gestural brush strokes echo the temporality of these moments, helping to draw the viewer’s gaze and envelope them into the atmosphere.
