Her love of art began as a child growing up with a family of musicians and artists on Long Island, NY, who encouraged her creativity. Anne’s artwork is primarily informed by a love of nature and the human form. As a seasoned traveler, Anne enjoys sketching in different countries – wherever she is, she finds local inspiration.
