Anne Smythe was born and trained as a commercial artist in Toronto, Canada. While working in advertising, Anne dreamed up the concepts of her paintings from her imagination, painting at night. After retiring from advertising and moving to the Ontario greenbelt a few years ago, she became fascinated with nature and has since been working to merge the strong influence of her new surroundings with the surrealist impulses of her past.
Anne paints in oils which allows her the flexibility she needs. She has shown regularly in both solo and group shows in Toronto and Hamilton and is a skilled portrait artist .
