Following a degree in Theatre Design, Annette has had a full and varied career in art and design. She worked for the BBC (assistant costume designer) then ran her own prop making business before fulfilling her dream of becoming a full time sculptor and prop maker working in London.
Annette has produced pieces for Madame Tussauds, Disney, Theatre and Museums. She has also made Lilo and Stitch , characters for Monsters Inc along with Beauty and the Beast. Her career included film work, making the armour for Russell Crowe in "Gladiator" at Shepperton Studios.
Some of Annette’s favourite work was for Disney. Creating characters that had never before been seen in 3 dimensions. Annette loves the whole cartooning experience, creating expression and humour with simple lines. “The Cornish Creature Company is at last an opportunity to create my own characters, aiming to capture the personality of the beast!”
We have been selling Annette's creatures here at Atishoo Gallery for many years and her brilliant sculptures continue to bring a smile to our visitors.
