Item Description

About This Piece: This dazzling, vivid watercolor painting is an original piece that has been generously donated by the artist, Wanda Metcalf, a member of the AANE Artist's Collaborative. The painting alone measures 12" wide by 18" tall. The included frame expands the total dimensions to 18" W x 24" H.

About This Artist: Wanda Metcalf has been creating art for almost sixty years. She has worked extensively in watercolor and is currently manipulating photographs to resemble paintings.

About the AANE Artist's Collaborative: The AANE Artist's Collaborative consists of artists with Asperger Syndrome (AS) and related autism spectrum profiles. The collaborative creates an amazing opportunity for these artists to showcase and sell their work on a regular basis throughout the year. The Artist's Collaborative invites people to not only appreciate the mind-blowing artistic abilities of our members, but to also take advantage of the strikingly unique chance to see the world through their artwork, and therefore their eyes. Adults with AS often struggle with an inhibited ability to communicate verbally, but through their artwork, our artists are tapping into their rare, ingrained ability to communicate visually.
