Ana was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and
raised in the Seattle area of Washington State, U.S.A. She soon
discovered the ability to render at a very young age. By pulling
images from her mind, she was able to recreate visually through
paints, pencil, ink or back then, crayons.
Throughout Ana’s adulthood, she searched
out various ways of expression, enrolling in classes ranging
from still life to life drawing, and experimenting with the
use of mediums from charcoal to sculpture to music. Ana's studio
is now located in Markham, north of Toronto, Ontario in Canada.
She was one of the 25 selected Canadian artists
who voyaged to paint Greenland and the High Arctic in the summer
of 2006, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the first explorer
to complete this journey. Please see arcticquest.info
for more information.
Her work is located in private and corporate
collections in Canada and the United States, and in the Permanent
Collection at the Vancouver Maritime Museum and the City of
Spoleto, Italy.
