Anne Herbert received her M.F.A. in studio art in 2013 from the University of Alabama and her B.F.A. in painting from the University of Montevallo in 2007. In between her undergraduate and graduate education, she worked as the Outreach Coordinator for the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts. At UA and UM Anne has taught a variety of classes including painting, water media, drawing, design, color theory, art awareness and a professional practices class. In addition to her teaching experience, she has co-owned and operated a studio and event space. She has also worked as a gallery coordinator for one of the University of Alabama’s galleries. Anne maintains a strong creative practice and exhibits regularly; most recently she has had solo exhibitions at the Hoover Public Library and the Gadsden Museum of Art and has had work included in the South Eastern College Art Conference exhibition. In her paintings, material, image, and conceptual research are bolstered by contemporary methodologies, but grounded in historical painting philosophies. Sincere dedication to her personal research is matched by an enthusiasm for teaching and staying engaged with contemporary art issues.
