Anna Jaxe is a portrait artist from London who is known for her layered hand-cut stencils created with spray paint. The subjects of Jaxe’s portraits are generally larger than life personalities that contribute artistically to popular culture. Stories in the public realm serve as a constant source of inspiration.

​

In 2020, her large scale painting of ‘Percy The Giraffe’ was featured on BBC’s season 5 of ‘Last Tango In Halifax’, and in 2022, Jaxe painted a 5 metre high portrait of Suranne Jones as Anne Lister on the side of the Ring ‘O’ Bells pub in Halifax which is now on permanent display.
