About
Analea’s abstract paintings are an extension of her free-spirited and earthly lifestyle, filled with exploration of both the inner and outer worlds.
Each piece is created purely at the moment, intuitively guided by the ecstatic brush movements, expressing subconscious reflections and revelations. This mindful urgency leads to unexpected and at times unknown mystical figurative and abstract elements appearing in her canvases.
By staying in awe of the Unknown, she allows it to guide what will be painted next. Combining primary colors with primal emotions, allowing imagination to wander beyond the known, Analea’s art links the material and ethereal.
Analea invites you to feel, connect, and enjoy the mystery and beauty of this wondrous world through her art.
Bio
Analea (formerly Inna) was born and raised in Ukraine. At 20, she moved to New York City to pursue her career on Wall Street in investment finance.
During childhood, Analea was a ballet dancer and always felt connected to creative self-expression through movement. When she moved to NYC, she immediately enrolled in ballroom dancing after her work hours to continue her passion for dancing. Later she realized that ballroom dancing was not what she was looking for. While continuing to build her successful finance career she noticed that her health was not at its best. A former co-worker suggested she try yoga for her lower back pain.
Since her first class, Analea loved the yoga practice as she felt immediate back pain relief. During the same first yoga class, she had a profound meditation experience. She was shown how all she was looking for was already within herself, within her heart. That life-changing experience allowed her to tap into what she realized she always knew but had forgotten about for all those years. It was the state of “inner paradise” and a state of complete trust in all that was unfolding for her. The worries and stress began to disappear, as she was shown how she is always loved, supported, and guided by the Divine. Since that heart-opening meditation experience, she then fully immersed in the study of all aspects of yoga. Thanks to constant yoga practice, Analea’s life began to transform not only on a physical level but also on a mental, emotional, and spiritual. As she continued her yoga journey, Analea began to experience other states of being and existence. That same “inner guidance” led her to pick up a brush and a canvas.
In 2015, right before moving to the Bay Area, she suddenly felt a strong calling to express herself via the medium of art. Having never been interested much in arts in general, Analea still answered the call from the Universe to start painting. Since then, art has become an integral part of her lifestyle. Art is like a culmination of all her experiences in life, both in its physical manifestation and spiritual energy forms.
