Her paintings have been exhibited across North America and are included in public, private and corporate collections internationally. "She paints from the eyes of compassionate experience, witnessing life in its raw infallible beauty" - Joanna McKenzie Enga curator Gibsons Public Art Gallery "Brown's art is like that: the longer you look, the less certain you are of what you see"--Joseph Rosen-Blank Spaces magazine December 2018 Ann-Marie Brown's lush oil and encaustic paintings are an invitation to linger. If you accept the invitation, the painting indeed becomes a presence that emerges from the canvas. Brown creates an experience for the viewer: the painting reads you, opens something inside you like haiku. - Bronwyn Melville (Winter Edition 2022 of Encaustic Arts Magazine : Museum of Encaustic Art Santa Fe)
