SELECTED REVIEWS/INTERVIEWS:
2013 “As time passes it is both beautiful and bittersweet. With spring oft comes life, and winter the opposite. Anne Angleshaug’s piece combines the former ideas into her melancholy yet whimsical piece “Where the Seasons Meet.” -
Flower Pepper Gallery-California. 2013 Interview, The flying fruit bowl - http://theflyingfruitbowl.wordpress.com/2013/04/30/anne-angelshaug/
2012 Interview, ArtSeen - http://artseen1.blogspot.no/2012/07/a-conversation-with-anne-angelshaug.html
2012 “Her works are distinctive for the whimsical depictions of peculiar children and their interactions with the mystical world around them.
There is a quality of bitter-sweetness to her images. She create an immediate sense of pleasant, open space with her careful choice of subdued colors and then, through her distorted characters, allows the viewer to sense an underlying atmosphere of ghostly despair..” Gallery Forrest-Bergen
