Anne creates 'mixed media' wall art and fused glass. Shown here are the mixed media pieces: Acrylic paintings on wood panels with fused glass accents. There is also a series of older pieces done in acrylic and colored pencil as well as her signature fused glass art. You can see more of Anne's work at her web site: http://www.annenye.com
'My work, like my experience of life, is about layers. I layer color over color and glass over glass, opacity over transparency. Just as joy layers over sorrow and today over yesterday, in my art patches of brilliant colors peek through darker ones like sweet secrets heard on a summer day, remembered in winter. So all my experiences come together in each work. Brilliant background colors express the joyous freedom of my childhood Idaho summers; layered with years of work and study, loss and gain. The tactile top layer expresses the now taking us right up to the present.
Originally from the Pacific Northwest, Anne Nye, studied fine art at the University of Idaho and California College of Arts & Crafts in Oakland CA following which, she worked as a graphic and fine artist in several parts of the country including Spain and Hawaii.
After years in the graphic design field, Anne finally began working full time at her art in 1997, moving into fused glass in 2000, approaching it very much like she did painting.
Anne lives in Omaha NE with her husband, Richard, the engineer of the team who works alongside her, making her dreams come true in so many ways!
