Anne

Indonesia. She came from a family of painters; on her mother's
side, Imeria Sunassa, the famous Indonesian artist, and on
her father's side great great grandfather, J.W. van Borselen
(1825-1892), landscape painter of King William III from The

on inspiration and her work conjures the fresh immediacy.
Whilst being impulsive, she also has a high level of execution
and a confident aesthetic.
Her first exhibition was in Spain, on the island of Ibiza,
where she had lived and painted for 5 years.
Anne paints directly on canvas, rice paper, panels, in mixed
techniques; Acrylic, gouache, oil or ink in classic or abstract
style. She also makes sculptures in bronze, stone and fibre.
