Meet
Ana Novella
I was instantly drawn when I discovered Ana’s

I knew this would be an excellent addition to our unique collection
of fine art at

A
native of Barcelona, Ana is inspired by myths and legends. She has the ability to
transform culture and nature into art. You might notice that her
main subjects are birds. In many primitive cultures such as Ancient
Egypt and during the Aztec/Mayan periods birds were often symbols of
the soul.
Ana
said: “I
represent narrative compositions, sometimes different stories in the
same painting or just a part of a legend between Paradise and Earth,
but they represent our days with wishes, thoughts, pleasures. I like working with
the causal more than the conscious mind, allowing for spontaneity to
flow.” |
Ana’s sculptures are made with
a blend of recycled materials, welded metal, fiberglass, paper-mache
etc. Mixing materials
provides additional beauty, strength and personality to her
pieces.
Ana
received her Diploma in Art in 1989 at the Colle of fine art Llotja,
in Barcelona.
Afterward, she continued her art education in London. Her work has been displayed
at art galleries in Amsterdam, Holland, England, London, Barcelona,
and France. In 1999 her
work was introduced for the first time in the United States at the
Terrain Gallery in San Francisco, California. |
