Blending modern insight with old world training, Anita freely moves through centuries to complete a finished painting. Her exceptional sense of color and knack for composition apparent. For Anita, contemporary art is an interpretation of the moment, captured directly thru color with exuberant strokes across the canvas.

Anita trained for three years in the Russian school of painting with Don Sahli who was the last protege of Sergei Bongart, who taught in the tradition of the Russian Impressionists. Anita also studied at the Art Student League of Denver with Jay Moore and Kim Mackey. Originally from Kansas City, Anita first studied art at the Nelson-Atkins Museum when she was six years old. Anita accumulated her extensive knowledge of the arts initially thru watching her mother in her own art studio. Anita has paintings in her personal art collection from her maternal grandmother was also an accomplished artist.

Anita paints in her Denver, CO studio-gallery and her work has been featured in articles numerous times in Southwest Art magazine including  “Artist to Watch” in 2001 and in American Art Collector, Western Art Collector, Art of the West and Vail Art Magazine. 

She is a founding signature member of Plein Air Artists Colorado and a signature member of the National Oil and Acrylic Painter’s Society and the Outdoor Painters Society.
