Anne Kaferle: Between the Physical + the Conceptual

Anne Kaferle’s landscapes nose right up to realism, and then dissolve into lush swathes and washes of color, the more highly rendered elements nestled amidst beautifully loose and muted colorfields.

 

Born in Connecticut, Anne Kaferle studied art and geology at Colby College and science illustration at UC Santa Cruz . In 2006, she moved to Utah, eventually finding home in a small desert town set below 2000 ft cliffs at the edge of the Colorado Plateau. Anne’s life centers on a profound respect and love for the natural world. Her biggest artistic influence has been time spent on local trails and rivers year-round, quietly observing. In turn, her landscape paintings draw from a deep, geologic sense of place and time.

 

Anne lives in Helper, UT with her daughter and partner.
