About Anne

Anne Hebebrand was born in Germany and has lived in Connecticut for the past ten years. Her artistic roots can be traced back to her great-great uncle Walter Leistikow, a German Impressionist and her great uncle Hans Leistikow, a graphic designer during the Bauhaus Period. Her drawings and paintings are well known for their lyrical explorations of color, line and form.

Hebebrand sustains an active exhibition schedule locally as well as regionally. Her paintings have been selected for exhibition in several Connecticut museums, galleries and public spaces including the New Britain Museum of Art, the Mattatuck Museum, the Slater Museum, Artworks Gallery, the Washington Art Association and the Alexey von Schlippe Gallery at the University of Connecticut.

Hebebrand's paintings have also been exhibited at the Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art in Augusta, Georgia and at the Boston Museum School where she was a Dana Pond Award recipient.

Her paintings are in many private and public collections throughout the Northeast, Southeast, Mexico and Germany.

Hebebrand has drawn critical acclaim in regional and national publications such as The New York Times, The Hartford Courant, the Hartford Advocate and Art New England.

She obtained her undergraduate degree from Tufts University and the Boston Museum School and her Masters from the University of Alabama in Birmingham. She currently teaches color, drawing and painting at Albertus Magnus College and at Manchester Community College in Connecticut.

Over the years Hebebrand has shared her love of painting and her passion for teaching with adults and children at various museums including the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut, the Birmingham Museum of Art in Birmingham, Alabama and the Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art in Augusta Georgia. She is a Teaching Artist for the Connecticut Commission of Culture and Tourism and for the Bushnell Partners in Education in Hartford.

Lately she has been excited about her newest venture offering painting and drawing workshops in Mexico for those who wish to work in an inspirational setting and who seek to expand their personal artistic horizon.
