Anna Ivanova

Anna Ivanova is a young, cheerful artist who shows us the pleasure of bathing a child, eating breakfast together, having a picnic with girlfriends. Life's simple tasks made charming. Anna was born in Tashkent in 1971 and graduated from the Tashkent State Pedagogical Institute in 1993. "I paint what is around me ­ often women and children," says Anna. She uses bold bright colors and a good amount of paint. Her hope is "only to grow professionally from canvas to canvas."
