Annie Barrett Cashner.
Annie Barrett Cashner is a local Sierra landscape painter, teacher, and musician. She studied at UC Boulder; Cerro Coso Community College; the Sierra Nevada College, Incline, NV, and workshops throughout CA coast and mountains. From a large Southern CA family, her love of the Sierra started on family camping trips, and she moved to Yosemite at age 18 and has lived, worked and painted the Sierra ever since. While working for a decade on Yosemite Trail Crew in Yosemite and as an outdoor science educator, her wilderness experiences and natural history studies trained her artistic eye to seek color, composition and natural beauty.
Plein Air painting is her favorite as it enables her to absorb and interpret the natural world, with rock and shadows being some of her favorite subjects. Annie is also a retired elementary school teacher and currently teaches piano, art, and outdoor education. As a resident of both Yosemite and the Eastern Sierra, Annie enjoys painting throughout the seasons and seeks original artistic viewpoints. She has shown her work at the Yosemite Renaissance Show, the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest Visitor Center, the C5 Art Studio in Bishop, at the Whoa Nellie Deli at the Tioga Gas Mart, Lee Vining, CA, at the Bishop Art Supply, Bishop, CA, and at The Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite Valley. Check out her website below for a more detailed look at her passionate expanse of paintings.
