Anna Jarrell is an artist based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Employing a variety of mediums, her work blends classical fine art techniques with a contemporary vision that results in evocative pieces that complement diverse design aesthetics and connect with clients on a deeply personal level.

100 counties. 100 landscapes. countless stories.

A Brush with Place is a portrait of our state in paint, a collection of 100 landscapes celebrating the unique character of each of North Carolina’s 100 counties. This project reveals the bond between people & place, translating our state's spirit through the artist's palette of light, color, & form.

A BRUSH WITH PLACE

- KIND WORDS -

  • Anna’s work is timeless while perfectly capturing a moment in time.

    Aside from being a highly skilled artist, Anna has a remarkable ability to capture the spirt of the portrait subject.  Even if she hasn’t had the opportunity to meet or know the individual subject, she engages with you to gather context and/or other images as to best capture the personality and features of the individual.

  • I will treasure these portraits forever!

    "I have always known that I wanted Anna to paint portraits of my children, but deciding on the exact style & placement can be overwhelming. Anna was so kind to come to my home to ease my mind while offering advice & options. I love that she was able to capture not only the physical features of my children, but their personality as well. When my daughter first saw her portrait, she immediately commented on her tell tale mischievous smile. I will treasure these portraits forever!"

  • Each portrait is unique & distinctly realistic.

    We have had the district honor to work with Anna four times. Each portrait is unique and distinctly realistic.  At the beginning of the commissioning process Anna collects information about the subject, the setting for the image, reference of what the Commissioner is looking for and what up front alterations to the image are requested. This typically lays the ground work for an excellent start, however if changes are needed Anna is both flexible but will make suggestions on how best to proceed.

    Commissioning any art is a leap of faith, but I have never felt stranded working with Anna through the process.  We have not only recommended Anna to friends, but we are repeat customers, which speaks for itself!

  • Everyone is completely taken with the painting, I smile every time I pass it in the house.

    "I cannot thank you enough for helping make such a special family moment (& it was incredibly nice of you to wrap it for me!) You are a true artist & I am so grateful for your work on this “secret project” - we unveiled it over FaceTime as the girls were traveling and we couldn't wait! Everyone is completely taken with the painting, I smile every time I pass it in the house."

  •  What a gift & we have Anna to thank!

    The pieces that Anna has created for our family make me smile every time I walk into the room—stirring cherished memories but also providing comfort that these will be family heirlooms that will be passed through generations and enjoyed for years to come.  Unlike something that lives in a book or in our memories, portraits on the wall are enjoyed by everyone who passes.  What a gift & we have Anna to thank!
