In focus

Moonlit Shore

Ultramarine sea against orange sand: two complementary colors pushed side by side until the whole picture glows. It is the same contrast a good poster or billboard uses to stop someone across the street.

Detail of Moonlit Shore: brushstrokes where the waves meet the sand.

About

Hello, I'm Ana-Maria

I'm an artist and designer from Bulgaria. I studied Arts at New Bulgarian University in Sofia, where I majored in poster and advertising design.

Painting is where I start: skies at sunset, the sea, mountains, flowers and bright patterns. When I'm not painting, I'm stringing beads into bracelets, rings and necklaces, or making cards for the people I love.

Now I want to bring that color to design work, creating posters, billboards and advertising in Adobe Illustrator. I work in Bulgarian and English.
