About the Artist Ann Walker is a northern California native, raised in San Francisco. Her art education includes a BFA degree from San Jose State University. She also studied art at the University of Arizona, Tucson; Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton; Academy of Art College, San Francisco; and Les Bassacs in Provence. Ann's professional experience has included 22 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she progressed from graphic designer, art coordinator to art director. Last year, she and her husband, Jess, moved to Point Loma in San Diego. |
Watercolor and watermedia have long been a challenge for Ann because of the chemistry of watercolor paint and the spontaneity of these pigments reacting on watercolor paper. Her background in color and design as a graphic designer enabled her to combine those skills with her passion to paint. She finds painting in the San Diego area particularly fun and exciting. "It is inspiring for me to live in an area where I can paint outdoors most of the year. It allows me to relate to color and light in relationship to many new and fascinating shapes around me. Color, especially, is incredibly more vivid in this part of the state." | La Tryst Original Watercolor 28" x 18" $700 Giclee Prints Available @ $150 |
