I’ve been making art my whole life and I love the creative process in whatever form it takes. My artwork is strongly influenced by my experience as a graphic designer—a mixture of creativity, analysis, problem solving, and decision making guide my process. However, a dash of spontaneity, a healthy dose of optimistic energy, and a fearless use of color shape my work. My love of color is evident in my work as well as in my home. Housse Studio is the culmination of everything I am passionate about—creating art, and using my color and design sensibilities to bring joy and beauty to your living space.

Majoring in Business with a minor in Fine Art, Annie received a BS from the University of New Hampshire, and then followed that with a BFA in Graphic Design from The Art Institute of Boston. She now lives with her husband Rich just north of Boston where she enjoys working in her home studio painting and designing for Housse Studio, while also maintaining her job as Principal & Creative Director at Stormship—her graphic design firm of 34 years. When she’s not painting, she enjoys time outdoors, running or biking with friends. As an aunt to 13 nieces and nephews, she loves her time with her large extended family whom all live within an hour of Boston. And whenever possible she visits her snowbird parents in Florida.
