Study in Green

Anne Ierardi is a painter and writer. Anne studied fine arts in Boston, California, Florence, and Provincetown.

She sees her work as a “landscape of the imagination” beckoning viewers to enter their own inner spaces.

Anne created a series of women jazz singers. Her latest portrait of Nina Simone appeared in a juried show at the Cape Museum of Art. Her memoir "Coming Alive" was published by Shanti Arts in 2022 with stories about her life as artist and ordained minister.
