Artist Anne E. McGraw
Anne E. McGraw has a Bachelors degree in Architecture and one credit shy of a Minor in Art from Mississippi State University. After living in Mississippi for 30+ years she now lives and paints in Colorado.
The most recent focus of her work is The Maps and Landscapes Collection; a collection of memories in the study of color, form and perspectives. The style work ranges from impressionistic to realistic paintings of landscapes and landscapes in the vantage point of maps. The subject can be as realistically detailed as a city or county map, an impressionistic study in outline and forms of a coastline or continent, or a more traditional perspective landscape focusing on light and color. As much as a maps role is to educate and inform, a map is also a landscape painting that casts daydreams upon the viewer and provokes a recollection of memories.
Working in oils allows the painting to blend while accepting loose painterly strokes that hold the light. Watercolors represent more details, as in a city map, but cast a vintage tone of old sepia paper and old blue prints.
Anne’s work connects with others for the same nostalgia and daydreaming purpose of any world-wide traveler.
