It's Anna, 18 years of age.
I love to create. I don't question whether my work is unique or quirky enough, they just happen.
Most of the time, I do not even know what I am going to create. I just put pencil to paper and the story tells itself.
Art used to be a hobby - but now it's my life. I endeavor to become an architect.

About my work
About work:
Well what can I say?
I'm not a proffesional, I'm an ammateur. But I'm totally fine with that.
My art teacher once recommended that from time to time I should stand back and observe what I am doing, because my practical behaviour induces eccentric and perhaps deformed images XD
My style:
My ideas are rather demented. Perhaps twisted?
My concept :
My concept, in all honesty, is rather basic.
I never decide WHAT to draw, nor do I think about what I'm doing. When pencil touches paper, it draws itself.
I work with these materials:
- cotton buds
- paint brushes
- eyeliner
- pencil
- paints
- i sometimes paint on wood rather that canvas
What kind of materials I prefer:
I prefer acrylic paint because its texture is quite defined.
Water colours are quite irritating, but they set a could shade.
What inspires me?:
My emotions. I paint better when I'm emotional - be it happy or sad.
Favorite work and why:
Undecided.
My message:
My message would be not to listen to me too much because I'm just a sixteen year old girl :)
But if I have learnt one significant lesson so far, it would be to go with the flow. Take it as it comes. And take risks, because if you don't, you'll always be eating yourself up with ''what if?''
Success doesn't find you, you find success. Try, try again, and try again after that :)
About art
How I got into art:
How did I get into art?
I was young, I picked up a pencil and it followed on from that.
What art means to me:
I don't like this question. If I say everything, then I sound narrow-minded. If I don't, then I'm a liar.
Art is my way of expressing myself, it is the subject that allows me to be right - no matter what I decide to perform.
My favourite artists:
Undecided.
Most impressive piece of art of another artist:
So far I'd say the naked picture of Rose in titanic :)
My favourite art books:
Basic Perspective
What has changed in the world of art in recent years:
In my opinion, there is a constant fashion to art. This is perhaps due to the wide range and variety of different styles. However, more onto the economic side of things, I see that too many people are taking Graphic Art to university, and thus the value of it is downsizing.
STOP HOGGING ART! I want a bloody job and you're all taking what is left!!!!
