The Northeast Georgia History Center is proud to present a small series of mini documentaries called, "Local Perspectives" with our inaugural guest, Anne Brodie Hill.
If you wish to learn more about Anne Brodie Hill, see more of her work, and purchase some lovely art - please go to her website: annebrodiehill.com
Anne shares the beginning of her career as a professional artist after retiring, her process in the capture of historical moments through her artwork, and the various projects that she has done over the years.
Anne has been painting since the 1960's and is inspired by marine subjects in both fresh and salt water. She enjoys working in watercolor, acrylics, oils and color pencil in a realistic style, and often will start with an abstract beginning on paper and canvas.
After moving to Forsyth County, Georgia in 1995, Anne traveled by boat around Lake Lanier every weekend. From the Marina where she and her husband kept their 72 foot houseboat, Anne started a series of paintings of the Bridges of Lake Sidney Lanier, Georgia. She has designed a series of Lake Lanier Holiday cards, and a series featuring the four seasons of the Downtown Gainesville Square at different times of the city's history.
Her watercolors and oils have been included in many American Society of Marine Artists as well as different national and regional exhibitions in several museums across the USA. Her watercolor painting the "Brilliant" was selected to be included in the Northlight book, Splash 7 and Splash Retrospective, 20 years of Contemporary Watercolor Excellence.
