I used makeup to create the feeling of layered colors and paint brush strokes. After finishing, I used a soft yellow light to add an antiquated feel and to bring out the brush strokes. (Picture taken by Kelsie Slaughter)

The same model from Portrait 442; what feeling changes between the two different poses?

Violins are common in Anna's portraiture (she never played, but the movements of violinists had always felt 'powerful' to her)

I had done a recreation of this piece for my senior portfolio (opportunity that is only available to one student per year) on a ceiling tile that is now displayed in my high school.

Anna is best known for her classic, romantic figures that carry a sense of elegance and grace.

They carry an aura associated with the Renaissance yet due to her signature expressive, dynamic technique they are refreshingly modern. Anna's eclectic mix of experiences has enabled her to create a truly unique signature style that resonates with those who share her passion for life. She is a great believer in art's power to heal, transform and inspire others in their journey.

Anna is a graduate of the Russian State University For Arts, where she was awarded the distinction of high-class artist in 1991. Subsequently she studied art in Germany, Belgium and Holland. With solo exhibitions in New York, Paris, Toronto, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Berlin and numerous works in private collections across the globe, she has become one of the most exciting and collectable artists on the contemporary scene.

Born at the height of the Cold War, Anna was exposed to very different worlds. She experience the austere world of the communist regime alongside the sophisticated and feminine influence of her fashion-conscious mother. She excelled at art school, and enjoyed the freedom of learning and perfecting her technique in a variety of different media. Of particular interest to her were the portrait masters of the late 19th Century, John Singer Sargent, the Russian painter Valentin Serov, and earlier masters such as Peter Paul Rubens and Rembrandt. She traveled around Europe absorbing the influences of artists, and finally settled in Canada which she now feels to be her true home.

Looking at Anna Razumovskaya's works you always getting a feeling of artist sole tension behind the painting... "romanticism" is the word to describe Anna's works...interlacing of a quiet tones with the bright color impact at the end is the trade mark of the artist...abstract elements is the big aspect of every artwork and, in a combination with the sensual dynamics, creates an unforgettable experience for the viewer.

Anna Razumovskaya graduated from Russian State University (Rostov-on-Don) M.F.A. Fine Arts in 1991 and from 1992 to 1995 studied art in Germany, Belgium and Holland.

...If an artist were asked what he was thinking of while creating his work, he would hardly give a reasonable answer to that question. This process can not be analyzed. It is like a miracle.

You are just drawing and that is all... simply not thinking of anything definite. The moment you start thinking... and that's it- unnecessary stroke, unnecessary detail. God knows how it all happens. Pleasure, passion, joy here are characteristics of this process.
