Anne is a Canadian artist who was born in Noranda, Quebec and raised in Sudbury, Ontario. Anne now lives in Calgary, Alberta.
Art has always been second nature to Anne. She won a city-wide award for a landscape painting at the age of twelve and sold her first painting in high school. Anne enjoys painting inspiriting scenes that invite viewers to reminisce and share about similar locations and experiences. |

Anne develops compositional sketches and value studies before she begins a painting. She finds it helpful to keep journals of her reference photos and thoughts as she plans and completes her paintings. These journals have provided sources of inspiration and learning for her over the years.
Anne works mainly in acrylics, and she often adds interesting textures to her paintings by using various gel and paste mediums. Anne's paintings begin with thin layers of coloured glazes that are followed by thicker opaque colour choices. Anne's pieces literally glow with brilliance as the light infiltrates through these built-up layers.
Anne continually works at improving her painting skills. Anne seeks support from other professional artists with critiques, workshops and home reference materials. Art is a journey for Anne!
Anne's art is in private collections throughout Canada as well as in many international locations. Anne sells her art at several art events throughout the year. (See Events page)
