Anne Blair Brown was born in North Kingstown, Rhode Island and was raised in Nashville, Tennessee where she currently lives. Her work centers on in�mate scenes inspired by local surroundings as well as travel in the US and abroad. “My artwork starts in reality and evolves through my imagin a�on. As an impressionist, I believe in a pain�ng process that enables me to tap into my crea�vity rather than trying to copy and perfect. My goal is to invite you, the viewer, to connect to the pain�ng such that you personalize the experience and use your own imagina�on to complete the story.”
Anne is a Master Member of the American Impressionist Society, a Signature Member of The Oil Painters of America, and past president of the Plein Air Painters of the Southeast.
