At eighteen Angela Eames attended Johannesburg School of Art in South Africa where she undertook her first Foundation course in Art and Design. On completion she returned to England to attend Farnham School of Art on a second Foundation course. From 1971 thro’ to 1974 she studied Fine Art Painting at Bath Academy of Art in Corsham gaining a place to study Fine Art/Experimental place at the Slade School, London in 1974. Her work as both artist and teacher instigated a return to study in 1991 to complete a Masters in Computing in Art and Design at Middlesex University under the tutelage of John Lansdowne. As an artist whose practice has continuously involved the exploration of drawing in direct relation to technology, she received a Doctorate in Drawing at Wimbledon School of Art and the University of Surrey in 2000.
She produces both series and independent works and has exhibited continuously both nationally and abroad. The images on this website show her commitment to various themes that have run throughout a working life of some forty five years. She lives in East Sussex and continues to practice as an artist/drawer.

"Typically, before starting a drawing, Angela Eames will have worked out a strategy to which she will adhere with great rigour. Her strategies are aimed to make visible, tangible to experience, what is invisible, assumed, or unnoticed in our daily encounters; what influence for example our own physique may have on our perception of the world around us, or how memories of our past may accumulate to become an unrecognisable entity in our day to day attitude, or again how information available to the computer may come to affect what we see when we look. As it accumulates, I think Eames will discover how independent, original and unsentimental her work really is."
(Michael Kidner,1990)
