"Snake Pod 01" Drawing

Anna Mancheva is a visual designer from Sofia, Bulgaria—а free spirit and minimalist at heart. A graduate of the Sofia School of Fine Arts St. Luca, specializing in Textiles, she has since explored a wide range of mediums including oils, linocut, embroidery, graphic design, and color consulting. In 2025 she published Colorwize, a color catalogue featuring 1,510 unique palettes—an inspiring resource for visual artists and creative professionals across disciplines. Much of her works are inspired by the quiet world of plants. She seeks to capture their immortality throughout every stage of their lifespan, from the seed to the dried leaf, each one a perfect sculpture. She works primarily with pencil, embracing the challenge of creating colorful images using only the shades of black and white. Beyond her artistic practice, she finds inspiration in architecture, photography, sports, and cinema. She is also a hobby graphologist and planning to start her first steps into ceramics.
