I recently had the pleasure of painting a commission for a family of their two loveable lab dogs. The family was thrilled with the final piece, and capturing the personality and spirit of their cherished companions was such a joy. If you’re looking for a personalized piece of art, please visit the link in my bio or contact me at annie@anniesalness.com for more information—I’d love to bring your vision to life!

As we wrap up another year, I’m excited to share my Fruits and Vegetables 2025 recipe calendars!
Inspired by the abundance of produce at the farmers’ market, back-to-school lunch bags, and the festive holiday season, I’ve created a 2025 calendar that combines my love for painting and cooking.
Each month features one of my paintings paired with a complementary recipe—like an easy tomato spread or banana bread blondies.

You can choose between:
A wall calendar with plenty of space for notes and plans.
A mini calendar that’s perfect for desks or tight spaces.

I’ve included a few images of the paintings featured in the calendar so you can get a glimpse of what inside!

They make wonderful gifts for teachers, hosts, coworkers, or as a little treat for yourself.

There’s a link in my bio for you to order. I’d love for you to have one!

Thank you for being such a wonderful supporter of my art!

With gratitude,
Annie 😁

Here’s a great stocking stuffer for artists!

I love using squeeze bottles for my acrylic paints—they make pouring so much easier. But I used to struggle with the nozzles getting clogged all the time. That is, until I discovered Caulk Caps. These little lifesavers fit right into the nozzle and seal the top!
I’ve been using them for about two months now, and they’ve truly made a difference in my painting life!!! 😁

Hello everyone! I’m excited to invite you to an evening where I will share my story after a life-altering stroke and how my artistic expression has evolved over time, from transitioning from biomedical illustration to stylized abstract landscapes, still lifes, and collage paintings. I’m eager to discuss and demonstrate the process behind my work. I hope that I will offer “valuable insights,” and there will also be interactive demonstrations. I hope to see you there!

Hello, everyone! I wanted to share some progress images from my paintings for the Fruits and Vegetables 2025 Calendar. I would really appreciate your ideas for a fruit or vegetable, along with a recipe to feature in the calendar.

Whether it’s a favorite dish, snack, or beverage highlighting a delicious fruit and/or vegetable, I need to include a total of 12 in the calendar. Feel free to message me with your ideas. Your input is greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!

I recently had the pleasure of attending an artist talk by Scott Gellatly about his latest exhibition, "My Wetland," at the Laura Vincent Design & Gallery. It was my first time seeing Scott's artwork in person and visiting the gallery, and I was truly impressed by both! Scott and Laura were so nice! (This is just a partial sampling of his pieces.) The exhibition will be on display until July 27th.

A simple solution to my one-handedness! 😁
I took flat braced plates…
attached them to my cabinet…
to hold my art substrates in place…
to endure the sanding, scraping,
collage burnishing, etc!!! 👍

KitchenAid, ©Annie Salness, 16”x 16”x 1.5”, mixed-media, framed, available.
(This is part of my Kitchen Tools and Recipes series.
And Melissa used her KitchenAid. I’ve included some process photos.)

I always feel grateful when my children introduce me to their friends who end up becoming an enriching part of my life. One such friend is Melissa, who played sports with my daughter, Katherine, in college and now runs her own organizing business called Side by Side with Mel. (@sidebysidewithmel) I recently enlisted her help in organizing my artist studio, and the results were fantastic! I highly recommend her for all your organizing needs!

She shared with me her sister’s popular brownie recipe, which is a fan-favorite with both adults and children in her family.

“My children, niece, and nephew love these brownies! My sister introduced this recipe, and it’s a quick dessert to enjoy every once in a while.”
-Melissa Butler, www.sbysorganizing.com

BROWNIES

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and HOT
1 T cooking oil
1 1/8 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan
with cooking oil spray. Line with parchment paper; set aside.
Combine hot melted butter, oil, and sugar in a bowl. Whisk for about a minute.
Add the eggs and vanilla. Sift in flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry
ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan,
smoothing the top out evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes; check with toothpick.
Remove and allow to cool to room temperature before slicing.

I wanted to share a personal story about my fitness journey. Years ago, I had a stroke that left me with a paralyzed right hand. It made it difficult for me to perform exercises with weights that required gripping. I reached out to Joni Neilson, Ifbb Pro (an excellent trainer) for help with my training. She suggested using lifting hooks, which have been a lifesaver for me. I’m so grateful to Joni for introducing me to this helpful tool! Thank you, Joni!!!

Just want to give a shoutout to our friend Chris Groves! He’s been our go-to contractor, helping us with home projects. It’s not easy living in a 70-year-old house, but Chris always has a smile on his face, and his reassuring and comforting presence makes everything better. Plus, did I mention he’s a phenomenal cook? I’m so grateful that he shared his mother’s minestrone recipe with me, and it will be a staple in our household. Thanks for all you do, Chris!

“A Christmas gift from my Mom, this Dutch Oven is something I fry in, bake bread, make soups, and much more. My Wife says this Minestrone recipe is her favorite food I make. Every time I look at it, I’m reminded of my Mom’s home cooking.”

Chinese Chicken Salad ©Annie Salness, 16”x 16”x 1.5”, mixed-media, framed, SOLD
This painting is part of my Kitchen Tools and Recipe series and my 2024 calendar.

I absolutely love how painting introduces me to incredible people and artists, like Carrie Moore.
She’s a talented, creative, and delightful person who does pastel painting, leather designing, printmaking, and copper sculpting.
She hosts workshops for both herself and visiting artists in her charming barn that is simply bursting with character and inspiration.
She shared with me this delicious recipe:
“My favorite dish is called Chinese Chicken Salad. (With a close second being tuna casserole with rice, NOT noodles, which to this day makes many of my sisters “gag”.)
This salad is sweet, savory, fresh, crunchy, and full of protein. I highly recommend it!
-Carrie Moore, www.carriemoorestudios.com , @carriemoorestudios5

You can see her work at the Wild Arts Festival Nov. 18 - 19, 10am - 5pm each day, or you can stop by her charming barn during her Open Studio at the Studio on the Knoll on December 1-2 from 10am - 4pm each day.

Consolation Prize, ©Annie Salness, 16”x 16”x 1.5”, mixed-media, framed, available.
This painting is part of my Kitchen Tools and Recipes 2024 Calendar.

I was fortunate to be introduced to Tyler by Darcy DeBord, the owner of White Birch Design Co. (@whitebirchdesignco)
Tyler is the co-owner of Insomnia Coffee, (Cedar Mill) which can be found just a few doors down from Darcy’s boutique (nothing like a little shopping and coffee to warm the heart!). He is an abstract artist and I was excited to invite Tyler and a few other artist friends over for an artist playdate, where we got to learn from one another’s work. Thoughtful, kind, and supremely happy, Tyler brought us some Insomnia coffee to fuel our conversation!

“One of our favorite drinks in our home is “the Consolation Prize,” a delicious mocktail that thrilled my wife’s heart when she was pregnant. This Mojito/Pina Colada combo-inspired drink helped her not feel left out during celebratory times! Ingredients include Pineapple, Coconut, Mint Leaves, Lime Juice, Honey, and Seltzer… of course, a splash of Dark Rum doesn’t hurt if appropriate. :)”

If you’d like to visit me AND Tyler during Open Studios this October 21st and 22nd from 10 am to 5 pm, Tyler is #18 on the map, and I am #28– come say hi!
