About the Author:
Anna is an artist and illustrator. Her rural upbringing, in Dumfriesshire, southwest Scotland, introduced her to flora and fauna, which alongside her love of interiors, fabrics and wallpaper have shaped her work. Since exploring these influences at Edinburgh College of Art, Anna has grown her trademark style of colour and humour, from her studios in London and Edinburgh.
Review:
"The art is spectacular: exquisite pen-and-ink drawings that capture collective animal personalities, filled with either masterful watercolor washes or carefully selected scraps of fabric and wallpaper... This brief, exquisite overview may well have readers wishing for a sequel-or consulting reference books to find out more collective nouns.'" <–> Kirkus on A Tower of Giraffes
"A visually expressive take on collective nouns." -<–>Publisher's Weekly on A Tower of Giraffes
