Anna's Page
Anna is 18 years old and attends Eagle Harbor High School, on
Bainbridge Island, WA, as an 12th grader.  She likes the art of Mark
Ryden, Tim Burton and Frieda Kahlo.  As long as she can remember,
she has been creating art every day of her life.  She gets and idea and
is compelled to create it.  She enjoys creating and experiencing ideas
through many visual mediums.  "My art is my voice", she says.  "These
acrylic paintings are a reflection on recent life experiences".
Pamela Bellesen became Anna's mentor
through the Kitsap County Juvenile
Department.  Together, they are working
toward Anna's recovery from substance abuse
and Anna's other life goals.  Whatever they
may be!
