Public vs. Private Painting

Anne has explored many different media over her career. She is currently interested in exploring color and texture combinations. Her work is very much about process. Anne works intuitively allowing the artwork to evolve; each new brushstroke creates new interactions and puzzles to solve. There is a visual order that emerges. Because of her love for work that reveals the process and the layers that came before, the challenge for Anne is knowing when to stop, when a work is completed and evolved enough, but not so much that the earlier struggles are hidden. Many of Anne's artworks are available reproduced on pillow covers, coffee mugs, phone cases and more at: http://www.redbubble.com/people/annebedrick In addition to being an artist, Anne is a full-time art educator. A proponent of student-directed learning, Anne is a public speaker and who presents about the value of empowering youth to choose work that has meaning for them. She has spoken at both national and local conferences about the power of self-directed learning. Anne is also the author of the interactive iPad book, Choice Without Chaos, available on the iBookstore for any apple device: http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/choice-without-chaos/id553083821 and in the Kindle bookstore: http://www.amazon.com/Choice-Without-Chaos-ebook/dp/B009H292EM/ref=pd_ybh_1
