The long and the short of it...

Anne is an artist living in the mostly sunny San Diego area. She had an untamed childhood, raised in the California mountains under a wide open sky. Growing up, Anne and her sisters would tool around the lonely dirt roads with their father in his Comet convertible, heater blasting and radio blaring under a shower of stars. The clarity of colors in that dry desert light has driven her passion for bold color, and the rawness of nature powers her love of uncommon beauty. She has a unique perspective that is both intuitive and thoughtful and is always seeking to unearth an offbeat storyline in her work. Anne is also an accomplished astrologer and Tarot afficianado and enjoys looking to planetary patterns for inspiration.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I am bewitched by the emotional impact of color; it is intuitive, instinctual and immediate. It inhabits our senses on a visceral level, sparking our imagination while searing imagery into our consciousness. I love painting from black and white photographs, both vintage and new, and infusing them with fictional color. Imbued color, or lack thereof, helps write the story and each viewer will shade, frame and narrate from their particular point of view.

I also do commissions. Please contact me for a world of possibilities!
