Ana Taveras

In my paintings I am using metaphors - the elements of nature are equated with decisions, that we make, with visions of the future and memories. When I work on a painting, I give all my heart and all my vitality into it during the working process. All those hours of work are saved in my painting and I want to show appreciation for you, the viewer of the painting, by giving it as my personal warm hearted treasure, a part of my soul and my individuality so as to transport warmth and happiness to you.
