Anne, a British citizen born and raised in South Africa, also lived in six European countries for 25 years and traveled
the world extensively before settling in the United States. New Orleans was Anne’s beloved adopted city for a few
glorious years until Hurricane Katrina.
Anne lives a varied life with a combination of her two artistic passions : painting and writing. Her travel writing
and photography has been published in a variety of publications, including the Los Angeles Times,
UK's Opera Now, Tahoe Quarterly. Anne has contributed the quarterly art trails column for the online ezine,
AmericanRoads.net since 2006 to date. Other publications include The Tribune Group in South Africa, The Lake
Oconee News, the Greensboro Herald Journal in Georgia, the Milford Chronicle, MilfordLive.com in Delaware and Lake
Tahoe Bonanza, the Nevada Appeal of Carson City in Nevada.
Anne now has her studio in Milford, Delaware. She mostly paints large size acrylics impasto
style with a palette knife - always full of vibrant color and movement, and charcoal or watercolor sketches.
Previously she owned The Point of Art gallery & studio in Georgia. The Point of Art Gallery received the honor of the
Greene County Chamber of Commerce Small Business of the Year 2008. Anne was a guest speaker at the Georgia
Governor's Conference on Tourism in 2007 and was also awarded the Georgia Governor’s Award of Distinction for
2008-2009.
Anne was awarded the 2013 Delaware Division of the Arts Established Fellowship Award - Folk Art-Visual Arts
discipline. In 2009 she spent 3 weeks in Colorado as an artist in residence at LUNA Creative. During her stay she worked with a well-known print maker in the San Luis valley.
An award-winning self-taught artist, her acrylics and watercolors can be found in many private collections in Europe,
Japan, South Africa, Canada, all over the United States. Among her corporate clients are HBO and Universal Studios,
Hollywood, California; Ritz-Carlton at Lake Oconee, GA.; Datacert Inc., Houston, Texas; TravelTalk Radio, San Diego,
CA., and Entergy Power Company, New Orleans, Louisiana.
Among many other things Anne has been a reporter, photographer, banker, English teacher, housecleaner and a truck
driver. She and her husband, Lee, also spent five years on a sailboat in the Mediterranean; many months in a VW van
in Central America, Canada and Alaska; months touring Asia on a shoestring budget, plus a couple of crazy years
driving a big rig around the Lower 48 and Canada.
Anne’s main interests are art, writing, music, travel and good food enjoyed with wine and friends.
Her mission statement simply put is: To have fun and beat the starving artist rap.
