Anna-Louise Felstead, a London based reportage artist and illustrator

Anna-Louise Felstead is a London based reportage artist and illustrator who draws and paints on location. Her work focuses on people within environments where she always captures something of the Naïve in the many and varied scenes she paints.  She graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2003 and has since documented subjects that are usually only covered by photographers.  Her work has apperaed in numerous magazine and newspapers and has taken her backstage at London Fashion Week, to Cartier Polo events in St.Moritz and Dubai, on Royal Navy aircraft carriers and more recently onto the classic car racetrack.

In March 2008 she attended the Monaco Grand Prix Historique where she was commissioned to paint car scenes and portraits.  Since then her work has taken her to Monza, Dijon, Silverstone, Goodwood, Donington, Oulton Park, Mallory Park, the Nurburgring, Paul Ricard and Spa.  Not only does she depict the cars, but the people involved with racing.  

She recently took part in the Historic Monte Carlo Rally where she drove a 1957 Alfa Giulietta Ti and is about to get her National B racing license.  She paints with ink on paper and her style varies between black and white line drawings to fully coloured paintings.
