My journey as an artist has been shaped by passion for creativity and expressing emotions .
My name is Anna Vassiliou and I'm the owner of Atelier Venezia – Art Studio in Cyprus.
I became an artist by admiring the work of the impressionist masters, Monet, Renoir, and Manet.
Next to my country's great masters, I have studied and improved my techniques. I work with oil, acrylic & mixed media on canvas.
My artworks express romanticism, sensitivity and nostalgia.
Many of my paintings are inspired by trips to Europe, especially Italy, where Venice has become my passion.
I’m a member of the artists' Associations: "Pittori e Artisti", "Pitturiamo", "IoArte", "Pittura Domani", "Gigarte", Artists of the World", "Artmajeur", "Ad-Art", "E.V.A. Gallery".
My paintings have been featured in several exhibitions and galleries. Some of my creations are permanently displayed in the Culture Museum "Kaimaklioti", Tonia's Gallery, Famagusta Gallery, Faros Art Café, Robinson Cyprus Hotel, and private collections.
