3 IN THIS COLLECTION I EXPLORE THE FLOWING NATURE OF LOVE - the blossoming expression of care and affection for yourself and others. Love is an evolving journey in our lives. We begin by experiencing love from those closest to us, but as we grow we move on to a wider circle of the special people we meet, and then we experience giving love to others. Like the constantly expanding universe, love is always spreading and evolving. But love emerges from one pure source - ourselves. I hope that this collection reminds you to look deep within for the source of love in your life, for it always begins there. With love, Anna

5 Love is like a rose. It opens its petals slowly and reaches the pinnacle of its beauty as time progresses. Love is eternal. We come from love and are made of it. But in this lifetime love is not always obvious, it can be elusive. We look for it everywhere except within. The rose does not need anyone to be love, to inspire love. The rose just is. It fully accepts itself as a rose and is therefore magnificent. And so must we fully accept and embrace ourselves to experience the essence of love.

8 I PAINT WHAT I FEEL, AND THEREFORE MY PAINTINGS ARE A PART OF MYSELF. Born in Russia at the height of the Cold War, Anna grew up in a world of strict rules, longing for colour, glamour and freedom of expression. Her father was an officer in the KGB and had pledged himself and his family to the austere lifestyle of a dedicated communist, but her mother was cut from a different cloth. Chic and sophisticated, this stylish subversive cultivated an elegant personal appearance and encouraged her young daughter to follow her example teaching her to take an interest in objects of beauty in the world, and encouraging her to play with the precious treasury of Razumovsky family jewellery. Thanks to her mother Anna grew up with an innate love of fashion which has pervaded both her life and her art. When she makes a personal appearance at a gallery in the UK, she radiates an exotic and extravagant sense of style which combines with her wonderfully warm personality and ready laugh to make her an irresistible guest. Her paintings seem to be an extension of this charming and elegant woman, channelling her personality and perception of beauty. Expressive, inventive and unpretentious, she could be described as the living embodiment of her art.

10 These images represent those curious blossoming stages when we taste the first essence of love and begin to crave to discover it for ourselves. Love takes time to develop, to come into its power and to bloom fully. When we are exploring ourselves we are often uncertain about our journey. We receive love and admiration from outside sources. People proclaim to us how wonderful we are but we are not always certain we believe them. But these words and gestures do touch us, they affect us and inspire us to look further within and to question, what do others see in me? Like the first petal of a rose a little colour begins to enter our lives and as we taste love we want to know more of it.

21 When we take the time to explore and uncover the layers we suddenly discover that there are more sides to us to love and we blossom. There are many angles, dimensions and shades to who we are. These are bold and vibrant, rich and deep as can be seen in these images, and they allow us to realise our creativity, movement, talents, charm and poise. Once we have blossomed we become more dynamic and are ready to move into full our full bloom where we can continue to not only love ourselves but to share our love with those around us and with the world are large.
