ABOUT THE ARTIST

Annabelle Rose Williams is a 26-year-old Fine Artist and Illustrator in the Cotswolds.

​

Annabelle specialises in mixed-media illustrations of architectural buildings, fashion objects, alcoholic bottles, and beverages. She employs a flamboyant, expressive painting style using watercolours, inks, and oil pastels to create bold, eye-catching pieces.

​

After studying Art & Design at the City of Oxford College in 2016, she studied for a BA Hons in Fashion Illustration & Imaging at the University of the Arts, London College of Fashion.

​

When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, it significantly impacted her degree. She withdrew from university, experienced artist’s block, and stopped creating. She lacked the confidence to resume painting until she was selected as a mentee in the Soho House x Creative Mentor Network programme in 2023.​ 

 

The 16-week programme significantly boosted her creative and confidence goals, enabling her to successfully host her first gallery exhibition at the Murray Pitkin Gallery in 2024. 

​

She made her Curatorial Debut by curating a Young Artists’ Exhibition at the Murray Pitkin Gallery. She managed 20 young artists aged 7 to 18, sourcing, designing, and hanging their fantastic and talented work in the gallery.

​

Annabelle was recently chosen to exhibit in a group exhibition, 'The Art of Connection,’ at The Holy Art Gallery in White City, London. This exhibition was from January 31st to February 2025, featuring leading artists from around the globe.

​

In February, she showcased her work at Cavendish House in Cheltenham in partnership with Manifest Clothing.

​

She was also shortlisted to exhibit at the Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea, London, in September 2025.

Annabelle is open to commissions for original pieces or, by request, Giclée Prints. If you would like to get in contact, please start the conversation at info.arwillustrations@gmail.com or @arw.illustrations on Instagram.
