Angela Wadsworth was born in Hereford, although she spent much of her childhood in Germany, before completing her education in Yorkshire and East Anglia. Between the ages of fourteen and sixteen she won several prizes for her sculpture work, later gaining a scholarship to Art College.

Angela’s Grandfather, Edward Greenwood, was a famous illusionist and cartoonist, so it’s not difficult to see where she gets her talent from.

While living in Canada, Angela found a great deal of inspiration from the Canadian First Nation Artists. Their simplicity of work influenced her enormously, and she was to create a style and interpretation of her own which has proved to be very successful, and a joy to behold.

The mediums Angela uses most are pencil, and pen & ink. Although she loves water colours, and likes to use acrylic for her more abstract styles of art work. Simplicity, clarity, variety, and extreme are all words that express her distinctive technique.  

“My style is very varied and extreme, sometimes no detail, to maybe too much detail. I am learning every day and I have over 30 years of ideas just trying to get out.”
