Anne's paintings have been exhibited in museums, galleries, and ASID Designer showcase homes.  Corporate collections and commissions include British Airways, Buena Vista Palace Hotel, North Island Credit Union, Big Horn Country Club, Marriott Hotels and numerous private residences including The Price Family. Anne Bradford has also exhibited a major show of paintings at the Royal Botanical Garden Edinburgh in Scotland in the summer of 2001.   Her paintings range in size from 2'x3', up to  5.5' high x 8' wide diptychs or  10' wide triptychs.  Custom sizes are accommodated.  The paint material is oil or oil and alkyd on heavy canvas.
