About
Born in Quebec, Canada, I am a full time artist currently living and working in Memmingen, situated in the picturesque southern region of Germany.
My studio and gallery space is open for visits.

My professional path is rooted in the high-end fashion industry, where I worked in creative visual roles. Parallel to my career, I have nurtured a lifelong dedication to abstract contemporary art. This passion culminated in the middle of 2021, when I made the strategic decision to focus exclusively on my artistry.
Over the years, I have enriched my artistic perspective through extensive education in art, attending classes across Canada, the USA, and Europe. This diverse educational background has been instrumental in refining my unique artistic approach. My experience in the interior design of retail spaces has honed my skills in attention to detail, and an acute understanding of harmony and balance. My work is characterized by its expressive, textural qualities and I often incorporate found materials to achieve a harmonious interplay between concealment and revelation. My creative process is intensely layered, delving into an exploration of shapes, lines, surfaces, and textures. My commitment is to the creation of authentic, unique, and honest artworks.
In reflecting upon my journey so far, I am humbled by the opportunities that have come my way. I have had the privilege of showcasing my work in both solo and group exhibitions, experiences that have not only been profoundly enriching but also pivotal in my artistic growth. The recognition of my art in various publications and magazines is a testament to the universal language of art and its power to connect diverse audiences. Additionally, being invited to share my insights and experiences on a podcast has been a gratifying experience, allowing me to connect with listeners and fellow artists on a deeper, more personal level.
It is particularly heartening to witness my creations finding homes across continents; my work is now collected and cherished by enthusiasts in Europe, Canada, and the USA. These accomplishments, while deeply fulfilling, serve as continual reminders of the generosity and appreciation of those who connect with my art. I am profoundly grateful for this journey and for everyone who has welcomed my work into their lives.

My wife has been following Annie on Instagram for quite some time and we were finally able to purchase three stunning works from her. Throughout the process she was very responsive and answered all of our questions. The payment process couldn't have been easier and she shipped very quickly with superior packing to make sure they arrived safe and sound. Thank you for making our first art purchase an absolute pleasure!Matthew, UK
I bought 2 beautiful pieces of art from Annie and the whole experience was lovely, she’s an incredibly talented artist and was extremely helpful throughout the entire process.

I have already been able to experience the wonderful pictures of this talented and friendly artist at two exhibitions and in her studio. I have now given myself a great Christmas present with two fantastic pictures with very expressive colors. These now decorate my living room wall. A pleasure!Verena, Germany

I was looking for a painting for my office. Instagram allowed me to discover the works of Annie Gendreau. The contact with her is easy, the framed artwork arrives at its destination in a few days and we discover a realization perfectly faithful to the photos with the textures and the depth that the painting allows. The painting is subtle, full of movement and the differences in light throughout the day give the colors other tones. Thank you very much Annie.Exhibitions / Press / Interviews
