Swell Artist Collective’s Anne Boyles is an artist based out of Boise, ID. Her entrance into the art world wasn't a typical one. She began painting during the summer of 2008 while on break before her junior year of college. After graduating with a Bachelor's in Psychology and minor in Business from New York University, she moved back to her hometown to care for her mother who was battling with early onset Alzheimer's. At that time, Boyles was several years into exploring what art meant to her, and what had begun as a hobby soon morphed into a passion. Since returning to Idaho she has completed a six month Artist-In-Residency program with the Department of Arts and History and participated in group and solo exhibitions in and outside of Idaho. She continues to explore different techniques and mediums, most recently incorporating collage work into her portfolio. http://anneboylesart.wixsite.com/home
