Ana Sneeringer is a Slovenian artist residing in Wetumpka, Alabama, USA. Having started her career in documentary journalism as a director of an environmental television station, Ana’s experiences across Jordon, Russia, France, the USA, The Dominican Republic, The Netherlands, and India, led her to express her observations and learnings in her contemporary artworks. Women or the female presence form the epicenter of her artistic exploration and stories. Living around the world and engaging with women from different cultures, Ana’s encounters resonated with the similarities of emotions and experiences everywhere, rather than the disparities of race or color. As a result, her artistic canvas is a vivid, kaleidoscopic world of thoughts, emotions, and experiences shared by the modern woman.

Entirely self-taught, Ana finds liberation in employing free will and speaking from her heart, unconfined by a learned discipline. Whether in watercolor, acrylic, or oil, she gives herself the freedom to experiment based on her subject matter.

“My art practice is not precisely something I am making up. Instead, it is coming as an inner call to paint my story, and I want to vocalize it through my portraits and figures. My art is about human rights with a woman as a leading depiction. The protagonists I paint women with strong character and energy who express raw emotions and aren't afraid to show their genuine and natural personalities. Female figures in my art represent quirky and unique ladies of real life, enjoying or learning to enjoy themselves by accepting themselves as unity and converting this realization into the superior power of proudness and achievability.

We can't run from the daily emotions we face. I need to capture and express these feelings through my work to show the world how strong humans are, especially women.

"I am currently focusing on how changes impact women’s lives who celebrate themselves outside their comfort zone. We all cope great in a comfort zone, but we find ourselves only to stagnate or bloom very slowly in that state. When you lose your comfort zone, you are left with a blank canvas to paint your new story. Playing with subjects like cars and plants is my synonym for understanding speed, durability, and strength one chooses to go within life”
