Anna Wingfield (b.1987) earned her MA in Art Education from Boston University and a BFA with a focus in Painting from the University of Arkansas. She lives and works in Rhode Island with her husband, Adam Langehough, who is also an artist, their son Jude, and their cat Sushi.

Although she did not live in the mid-20th century, she is drawn to its domestic imagery as a form of constructed nostalgia shaped by cultural memory and idealized representations of home. As a working mother who lives where she works, she experiences domestic space as a site of continuous, overlapping labor. The tools she paints function as symbols of invisible care work, communication, and administration. Through self-portraiture, images of her child, and the presence of their family pet, she inserts her family and daily life into this inherited visual language. By rendering both objects and figures with photo-realistic attention, she elevates them as markers of time, responsibility, and identity, creating a dialogue between an imagined past and her lived present.
