The Beginning Born in Trencin, Slovak Republic in 1953, accompanied by her father, they would visit the galleries and art studios of this art and culture rich region.  Here her passion begins! In the city of Bratislava, in Slovak Republic Anna studied fine art and photography. She then moved to Prague, in the Czech Republic, where she studied fine art and began studies in art history and as a sculptor. Her painting style became influenced by the great masters, such as; Michelangelo Buonarroti Perier Renoir Amadeo Modigliani Auguste Rodin Leonardo Da Vinci Sandro Botticelli Mikolas Ales Josef Lada Maxb. Svabinsky Z. Sykora J. Kopacek Pablo Piccaso And working with great Czech artists as; Vitek Capek Jiri Polansky Petr Krystufek   Her style became clearer and well defined and my passion and style developed into what it is today.

Today Today she’s more inclined towards abstraction, color combination and the spatial elements of art as it relates to her own past or present life experiences. Much of her work is born under quick emotions and feelings of the trials and tribulations of her life experiences; “My work  reflects my inner  soul!” Much of her work is oil on canvas and she finds extreme satisfaction in portraiture, painting live models with her own style of expression and atmosphere. Photography is another art form that draws passion within her;  “I love to capture the essence of nature, especially the beauty of life within nature, - birds, flowers, trees, and even the details of a blade of grass or twig. I love to capture the beauty, the lines, and shapes on film.”
