Mixed Media Printmaking
Anna’s spiritual connection to her art shines through printmaking that revolves around the body, nature, pattern and geometry and discarded materials.
“Art is both a natural compulsion and spiritual exercise for me, and my process is a meditation on order and chaos,” the Berks County native explains. “Printmaking gives me the opportunity to work indirectly, with the results remaining a mystery until they arrive. Lately those prints have been taking on new life after the ink or paper dries, and I have been finding ways to incorporate added materials and processes into the mix. Paint and thread bring new dimensions to embossed textures and inked designs, where nature, geometry, and pattern unite.”
Anna continues to advance methods she first encountered as a student at Kutztown University, where she was encouraged and inspired to use unconventional materials and combined techniques as part of her process.
When she’s not in the Printmaking studio at GoggleWorks, Anna can often be found in the 600 block of West Reading, at Art Plus or, even more often, as a popular hairstylist at Kid’s Cuts.
