Anne Hirondelle earned a BFA degree from the University of Washington, Seattle in 1976. Her educational background also includes a year in law school and a degree from Stanford University in Counseling Psychology.

Among her awards: a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, First Place in the Cedar Creek National Teapot Show, and First Place in Women in Washington: The First Century.

Artist Statement:
Because I rely on the vessel as my core metaphor, I rely on tradition. I see my pieces as a personal restatement of a very old statement, as a visual thread between the past and the future as I find meaning in the present. They are expressions of my desire for order, harmony, rootedness, and a little grace in this world that feels as though it is flying apart. Through my vessels, I hope to speak, not centre stage, but in the quiet, contemplative niches and corners of the individual and collective psyche.
