Ann Chadwick Reid

Ann Chadwick Reid received 2010 GAP Award funding to pay for framing of a series of five works of art for a two-person exhibition at Anchor Art Space in Anacortes, Washington in August 2010. Since retiring, Ann has created imagery that reflects on her experience of living on an island in the Pacific Northwest, allowing her direct access to nature and, in particular, the variety of plants and birds that live close to and are dependent on the waters of Puget Sound. Within this environment, she observes the tension and irony of the relationship between humans and the natural world, which have become the basis for her work.
