ABOUT ANNE CROWLEY

I was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1960. My love of art was ignited by my grandfather Liam O'Rinn whose paintings I grew up with and where he had his painting studio. I began my formal study of painting at the Dunloghaire School of Art and earned a BFA at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin, Ireland. After making my way to New York City in 1983, to study further, I earned a Masters in Fine Art from Hunter College in 1986. In 2000 I relocated from New York City to the Hudson Valley, where I found the new surroundings visually compelling: the Catskill Mountains, the Ashokan Reservoir, the deer, birds and flora.
