Anne McNally
is a professional artist whose body of work reflects an extensive background
of painting. Oil renderings of classic subjects in the impressionist style
she also paints contemporary abstraction; a distillation of familiar subjects
painted with energy and emotion. Her lifelong love and fascination with color
and light is still evident. She believes that classic subjects and the abstract
expression of them can co-exist in an individual painting and she continues
to explore that possibility.
"Many paintings paint themselves.... an unconscious desire to impart or
communicate a place or a memory of the conscious or unconscious mind driven
by emotion.
Anne
maintains a studio in D'ART CENTER, a non-profit organization which allows
affordable rental studios in downtown Norfolk, Virginia. Her work can be
found in both corporate and private collections in many states including:
Washington, DC, Virginia, Maryland, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Missouri, North Carolina, New Jersey, Maine and California. Anne had
participated in many juried shows and won several awards.
