Anna Ovchinnikova is a San Francisco-based artist, originally from Moscow. With a Master’s degree in Industrial Design from Stroganov Moscow State University of Arts and Industry and an honors degree in Art Direction from the British Higher School of Art and Design, her practice balances structure and expression. At its core, her art is an invitation—to look deeper, challenge assumptions, and discover meaning in the unexpected

Beyond her personal work, Anna is passionate about art education, having developed her own program for children to foster creativity and exploration. She wants her students to realize that art is more than just making something—it is a way of thinking, expressing oneself, and connecting with the world

Live painting performances play a vital role in Anna's process, where spontaneity drives bold gestures and raw energy. A true live painting enthusiast, she loves the electrifying energy of creating in front of an audience. This passion seamlessly translates into her studio practice, where the same sense of immediacy, movement, and emotion fuels her creative expression
