Anne Siems has a deep interest in shamanism, ceremony, and the nurturing that nature provides. Born in Berlin, she finished her MFA and then moved to Seattle. Her work has moved from semi-abstract, room-filling plant and insect drawings to paintings of detailed botanical and anatomical imagery to young women and children—“the thread here being my fascination with and awe of life on this planet and the connectedness I feel to all.” annesiems.com
