Bio
Anne Blair Brown was born in North Kingstown, Rhode Island and currently resides in
Nashville, TN. Her work centers on both rural and urban landscapes, figure, and interior
spaces. While she enjoys the quiet solitude of her studio, she delights in painting on
location. Brown says, “Painting from life creates an intimacy with the subject that I just
can't get from a photograph, and it heightens my sense of spontaneity. That energy is
translated to the canvas in and out of the studio.”
Anne is a Signature Member of both The Oil Painters of America and The American
Impressionist Society. She is the Past President of the Plein Air Painters of the Southeast
(PAP-SE) and remains active in the group. She is also an active member of The
