“Creating art objects, I worked in lot of techniques until I found something that helped my imagination to reflect on the canvas. This is an impasto technique. I paint the image in large strokes adding volume to the surface of the canvas.”

Early years and school
Anna was born in Georgia and spent the earliest years there, surrounded by warm sunlight and clean beaches. Unlike the other girls in her age she was asking her parents to buy her a boat and a fishing rod, as the sea itself and marine creatures always
amazed her. She used to go fishing with her dad but once he caught a fish she begged him to let it go, and he did. When Anna was 10, her parents moved to Ukraine, to the suburbs of Odessa city.
As the artist says, she never noticed a difference. The same sea and pretty fish, the same openminded people with good sense of humor. Anna enjoyed her childhood and her parents called her “mermaid” as she spent the days long on the beach, made sand castles and observed people around. Since childhood she noticed the slightest details, that people usually not pay attention to. She loved discovering the closest to the house beach, and found some ancient fossils and an ammonite there. They were a pearl of her collection of sea treasures.
Anna went to the private school in Odessa and enjoyed her schoolyears. It was a school specialized in English and French language. Anna was into French, and studied it deeply even with a home teacher. She ended up reading the books in French and watching French series easily. Together with French Anna was interested in history of French art. Her home teacher had a bachelor`s in Theoretical art as well, that`s why he told her a lot of interesting things about artists form France. The girl started to catch interest in Paul Gauguin`s art.
“I love the colors, they are so juicy I would say. I mean when you look at his paintings it looks like he took the richest and deepest colors and put them on canvas. His artworks became a big inspiration for me as well as a push to become an artist. I started from Acrylic paints. I used to paint our home, our garden and our vineyards. The latest I loved the most, as each grape has its own unique color reflected with the rays of sun.
At the very beginning I was a bit afraid of making my art in public, it was something intimate for me, I didn`t want another people to follow the movements of my brush, but then I let these thoughts go and went back to what I loved in childhood: the sea, and the marine creatures, that`s why I was taking canvas and doing my art on the beach. I dreamed of studying art and I worked hard to pass the entrance examination and I entered Kyiv Academy of Arts and Design by Mikhail Boychuk”
University and adulthood
It was a big stress for Anna to leave her home and her family and move to another city. “It was a pity for me to know that they don`t have any Art education institutions in Odessa.” But now the artist recalls university years with excitement. It was an important experience for Anna, she got an opportunity to rely on herself and to find the ways out of difficult situations by herself.
Anna was interested in history of art and was reading a lot of literature about impressionist and expressionist schools of art. She was practicing a lot in creating paintings with watercolor and acrylic paints and didn`t like graphics classes. She loved to play with colors and she was looking for the most saturated colors in color palette. This research led her to oil paints. “It was a crucial moment in ,y life, I realized that I found the colors I enjoyed. I loved everything about oils: texture, volume, color saturation. It took me a long to master this technique”.
The artist graduated and got her bachelor’s. The first thing she did – travelled back to the place she was born to refresh the old child memories and see her relatives. She spent 3 months there and wend to Odessa. “My mom was asking me to make her portrait and I was always postponing this, as I was not sure in my skills, but finally I managed to do a good portrait for her and for dad, they were pleased.”
Then in Odessa anna met a soulmate on one of the exhibitions. This meeting was a turning point in her life, they both ended up in Kharkiv. Anna never considered this city as the one where she could live happily, but her opinion changed as she came there.
“I was happy to find a place where I could feel happy and safe as well as create my art and share it with people all over the world.”
The artist had a plenty of travel experience, but still she says, that the best places she ever knew are her home in Georgia and her home in Odessa. She always recalls these places with warmth.
