Piece description from the artist
On a snowy day as Fall turns to Winter, the sky fills with fluffy snowflakes that fall on this wooden barn. I love this time of year, which always seems like a fight between the seasons as the weather grows colder. The grass remains a beautiful faded green, still a remnant of summer, while the snow begins to fall turning the landscape golden tones as it goes dormant. The tall grass of summer will curl up and lose its color until Spring, when it grows tall and vibrant again. I truly love the cycles of seasons in the Rocky Mountain states, each one has its own beauty. The stillness of Fall and Winter have always been a time I enjoy, as it allows for a quiet time in life where we slow down and enjoy simple things.
Annie was born and raised in Montana, growing up on her family's ranch in the beautiful Smith River Valley. Growing up in Montana's wild and beautiful Landscape led to her deep love of nature and all things rural. Annie attended the Art Institute of Colorado and lived in Denver Colorado until the completion of her Interior Design degree in 2002. After working in that field for several years, Annie moved back to Montana and began her own business, focusing on her ever-growing love of photography. She began traveling the backroads and wilderness of Montana and the Rocky Mountain region and selling her photos professionally in galleries, shops, and online. She primarily searches for rural Landscapes, old barns, abandoned farmhouses, and occasionally wildlife she encounters. Her work as been featured in HGTV, Better Homes and Gardens, and featured in three books on emerging artists of the United States. She currently lives in Billings, Montana, and takes several trips during the year to gather new images.
