Anna Dohnanska is a Slovak-born, Luxembourg-based artist whose work dances between two worlds: the grounded beauty of everyday life and the boundless wonder of the infinite. Her art is an invitation - to pause, to breathe, to notice the colours, shapes, and stories that make life both tender and extraordinary.

Born in Trenčín, Slovakia, Anna studied Philosophy and English Language and Literature, a foundation that deepened her love for ideas, beauty, and expression before beginning her career as a teacher. In 2008, she moved to Luxembourg, where the pull of her earliest passion - painting - became irresistible. Since 2017, she has also been sharing her knowledge as an art instructor at the Foyer Européen in Luxembourg, inspiring others to explore their own creative voice.

Her journey began in childhood, sketching endlessly and finding peace in the stillness of galleries. As a teenager, she painted small oil flower pieces, lovingly framed by her father, which she both sold and gifted - early signs of the connection her art would create with others. Anna paints with her left hand and writes with her right - a natural balance that mirrors the harmony at the heart of her work.

Anna’s creativity flows into two distinct yet complementary styles:

Contemporary Classics, grounded in the beauty of nature, memory, and tradition - celebrating the richness of lived experience.

Philosymbolism, her signature style, rooted in philosophical thought and symbolic form, a luminous fusion of colour, gold, and flowing lines that reach beyond the visible, exploring infinity, continuity, and the ever-present rhythm of life.

She works in oil, acrylic, and pastel, often enhancing her pieces with gold leaf to capture movement and light. Whether portraying a familiar flower or an endless golden spiral, her paintings are guided by a belief in beauty as a source of joy and harmony - a quiet celebration of the human spirit.

“Beautiful objects are beautiful to us because we lend them our soul.”
