Hello, Hello and Welcome!
If you love art, or want to make art of your own, I’m Anna and I’m here to
share the joy of drawing and painting.
“Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.”
That’s what William Morris recommended, and so do I!
I love putting my colourful art on well made items for your home and for gifting. Click through and check out the beautiful things that will make you smile.
Hi, I’m Anna Battle, an artist and designer based in Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.
My mission in life is to spread the joy of drawing and painting.
Working in both watercolour and acrylic, I regularly exhibit my work, have a line of homewares and stationery and I teach workshops and classes.
I believe that art helps people make sense of the world, and it’s not about being good, but looking at the world through the eyes of an artist makes your life richer and fills your heart with gratitude.
My signature online course is ‘Shiny Happy Drawing’ and I also run the ‘Shiny Happy Art Club’ with over 60 acrylic paintings on offer - TRULY something for everyone!

“I adore my Anna Battle painting. It’s front and centre in my lounge room and makes me smile every single day. We even bought a new lounge to show it off!”

I just finished all of the 24 monthly Paint Alongs. My favourites were ‘The Shopping List’ and ‘Natalie the Koala’. I did enjoy all of them though. You’re a terrific teacher, Anna. I had COVID and I appreciated having your online lessons. They saved my saniy.

I have just astounded myself! This actually looks like a bird! Thank you Anna Battle for your clear instructions. I’ll be walking around with a big smie on my face for the next hour or so!
