Anne Baldock

Anne Baldock is a working artist based on the Otago Peninsula in Dunedin, New Zealand. Anne served as Vice President of the Otago Art Society (OAS); New Zealand oldest Art Society, and is a member of Otago Peninsula Artists Group (Open Arts).

Anne Baldock grew up in Dunedin, and spent several years living in Auckland. In 2002, her return to the Otago region strongly influenced her choice of subject matter. She finds inspiration in many areas of life – the land and its animals, architecture and social settings. Many of her works include historic buildings and streetscapes as well as rural settings from Central Otago. More recently she has moved towards surrealism, adapting her subject matter to create a series of animal inspired works. Eclectic artworks reflects a style that is distinctly her own.

Her works are painted using artists quality Windsor and Newton acrylics on quality Museum Canvas. Anne’s eldest daughter, Gemma, studied at the Dunedin School of Art.
