Synopsis
Gothic Fantasies brings together a collection of over 80 of Anne Sudworth's pastel paintings. Her dark and atmospheric work, with its melding of magical imagery and ancient beliefs offers a haunting mix of the natural and the arcane. Often set among stone circles or moonlit forests, her pictures have something dark and alluringly esoteric about them. She likes to "explore the idea that the earth has a darker, lesser known side, perhaps one of which our ancestors were more aware".

From her dark brooding visions of eerie trees and haunting moonlit landscapes and ancient ruins such as Stonehenge and Whitby Abbey, to her dark, mystical creatures and fantastical beings, Anne Sudworth's paintings are, in the words of Mick Mercer - "...way beyond awesome".
