Artist's statement : 

Art by Anna Tsvell is having no intention to force the viewer to feel any exact emotion .
​Anna's paintings and drawings are freezing the moment before it is going to happen or showing the consequences of something that just happened. The viewer have to complete the narrative himself and decide if this moment is beautiful or disgusting . 
"Anna Tsvell is an artist who seems to be too young for such a distinctive artistic style. She paints surreal portraits with watercolours and acrylics, putting some weird details and patterns looking like funguses, and making the necks long resembling the pictures of Anna Akhmatova and oil paintings by Amedeo Modigliani " .
