Best of Business Canvas Print:

Ann Gadd’s paintings have been converted to stretched canvas prints. Ann Gadd’s sheep paintings use corporate jargon: “Let’s Circle Back on That.” Other office buzzwords like “Synergy,” “Low-Hanging Fruit,” and “Think Outside the Pen” are subtly woven into the background, blending into abstract brushstrokes of red, black, and white.

The overall style is a mix of surrealism and corporate satire, with exaggerated features giving the sheep a slightly smug yet motivational expression. 

It’s the perfect mix of humor and professionalism, making employees chuckle while subtly reminding them of their daily grind. Ann’s sheep move away from the herd mentality, creating an individual voice for themselves. Her work hangs in prestigious offices worldwide.

In addition to the canvas prints, a range of 20x20cm block-mounted prints are available.

About Ann

“We are the canvas and, as such, are both the creator and the creation.”

Ann Gadd from the Preface of The 2^nd Collector’s Guide to Art and Artists in South Africa.

Overview

Ann Gadd has been an artist since she scrawled her first images in crayon across her bedroom wall. (An event her parents found to be less auspicious.) 

After winning the Best Acrylic Painting at the South African Association of Artists annual competition in 1997, she gained the confidence to make art her career. Since then, she has had numerous exhibitions and sold over 5 000 works.

Ann has an exceptionally rich spectrum of professional and personal experience, abilities, and talents to draw from. Her overall expression is one of change through consciousness and creation. Having spent nearly two decades as a Commercial Artist/Creative Director in advertising, Cartoon Book Illustrator, Alternative Practitioner, and teacher and as a co-director of an advertising agency, Ann began to indulge her passion for painting more seriously in 1997. Since then, she has been a full-time artist and writer.

She has participated in many group and solo exhibitions both locally and abroad.

Profile 

Ann is a vibrant and prolific artist and author.

Most known for her Ewe/Sheep series of work, she has painted several other series of works, including Palindromes and Popular Icons, Zulu Lulu, Give it Horns, Dogmatic Art, and Prey.Pray.

A recurring theme in her work is a play on words and the use of popular jargon. Her quirky, humorous, yet profoundly insightful art, allows the viewer not only to laugh at themselves but to examine many of the absurd aspects of life.

She has written and/or illustrated 42 books and had 18 language translations. Her books include Making Your Art Work, How to Make an Income from Your Art, and Paint by Numbers—Art and the Enneagram.

Style

Her style has shifted from Conceptualism, and Fauvism, (early work) to Pop Art (Zulu Lulu and Palindromes and Popular Icons Series). Later, she created the Ruminantic art movement with her Sheep/Ewe series. African Symbolism is a title she coined for the Give it Horns Series. Her Pray. Prey. series is street art influenced where she explores a more personal and self-revealing approach. 

Baabaaism

Baabaaism is a term coined by Ann to describe art related to sheep. The style has as yet to gain followers.
