Anne Leding - About the Artist

ANNE LEDING ILLUSTRATIONS
ADL STUDIOS

A very early memory as Anne was growing up; she dragged an old coffee table from the attic to her bedroom where she set up all of her crayons, coloring books, paper and watercolors (her first drawing table). As she pulled up her little chair, she thought, (in her child's mind) ...she was officially "an artist".

The basics of watercolor painting were taught to her by her aunt, who in her own right, was a seasoned watercolorist. As a child, she used to sit for hours in 'Aunt Jeannie's' studio and watch her paint. Even today, watercolor remains her favorite medium.

Her professional artist career actually started at age seven with winning a city wide school poster contest. In high school, she received a letter of recognition for her art work from SEVENTEEN magazine.

She studied as a fine arts major in a small college in her home town in Arkansas, at Memphis State University and a stint at the Memphis Academy of Arts. Her background embraces illustration, graphic design, typography, painting, silk screen, stained glass, and set design as well as sixteen years of combined studies of piano, violin, and classical guitar, which she has taught throughout her college years and beyond, but in order to satisfy her soul, she was always drawn back to her painting.
