Read the presentation and the interview of the painter Ana Maria Edulescu and discover the unique style of her gorgeous paintings.
Ana Maria Edulescu is a very talented, full-time painter from Romania. And, she’s the winner of the “Artist of the Week” contest with her gorgeous paintings. Her wonderful portfolio has mostly oils on stretched canvases with a variety of themes, from flowers, cities, animals, and birds, to abstract expressionist works.
Ana Maria has developed with her brushes and her palette knifes a very personal and unique style. She uses multiple vibrant colors, relief surfaces, and themes that travel the viewer to known places and unknown feelings and dreams. Today, I’m so happy to present her interesting interview and her fabulous artwork.
An interview with the painter Ana-Maria Edulescu
FAWbyJWP. Ana-Maria, how did you get into art? What do you think played a significant role to become a full-time artist?
Ana-Maria. There was a time in my early childhood when every morning I woke up to the smell of oil paints from my father, who was also a painter. I loved that smell then and I love it today. And, I think then started my way in art….
I don’t know if there was a specific moment that played a significant role in my becoming a full-time artist. What I know for sure is that now I can’t imagine myself doing anything else.
FAWbyJWP. How would you describe your work? What do you think is the characteristic that differentiates you from the other artists?
Ana-Maria. I simply cannot describe my paintings in words. I perceive the act of painting as being sacred in itself and I feel that if I would start to analyze it too much, I would destroy this sacredness, its inner mystery. The artist’s mission is only to create in my opinion. The process of creation is something too intimate for me and very complex to describe in words.
FAWbyJWP. How do you find inspiration?
Ana-Maria. There are so many things to tell for answering completely this question, but I think perhaps quietness would be the best answer, at least on my part, because anything I would say, I’m sure I’d forget something. I paint my dreams, my emotions, lived or only apparently lived impressions … I simply express myself in my work.
Colors, medium, and personality
FAWbyJWP. In your work, you use so bright and intense colors. Do you believe that the colors, medium, and themes you use could tell something about your personality and your experiences in life, and what would that be?
Ana-Maria. Yes! It shows that I am and I hope that I will always be a child or at least that I try to preserve by my art that miraculous joy that only children can feel.
FAWbyJWP. Are you an extrovert or an introvert as an artist?
Ana-Maria. I really cannot define myself only as an extrovert or only as an introvert. Sometimes it depends on what I’m working to.
FAWbyJWP. How challenging is it to be creative and an artist?
Ana-Maria. To know that you have only one life and so many ideas… too little time for so many things to paint.
FAWbyJWP. What is the best advice you ever heard for your art or for your life as an artist?
Ana-Maria. If you want to create art, do it! Do it daily, do it hour by hour, do it in every single moment of your life. Paint with your brushes, paint with your palette knives, paint with anything, but especially paint with your heart, with your soul. This is the advice I give myself every day!
“Abstract Santorini – Oia Before Sunset” presentation
“Abstract Santorini – Oia Before Sunset” is from her series “Greece”. In 2010, Ana Maria spent her summer vacation in Santorini. And, she definitively fell in love with it. Santorini is a small greek island in the southern Aegean sea. But, it is also a famous touristic destination. Plus, it’s well-known for its beautiful architecture and distinctive natural environment due to its volcano. That’s why the sunset on this island is a special event. Every evening hordes of people are searching for a place to sit and watch the sun sinking in the blue Aegean Sea.
In this award-winning painting, Ana Maria tries to capture successfully the bright summer light and the minimalistic Cycladic architecture with an abstract expressionist mood. Vibrancy in colors and simplicity in forms and textures are the tools that she uses. Thus, she interprets this well-known scene of Oia sunset with her personal artistic vision. The result is so unique and stunning like the beautiful event it depicts.
Ana Maria Edulescu currently lives in Bucharest. Many of her artworks are in private collections all over the world. You can find Ana Maria and more of her unique work on her website: edulescu-ana-maria.pixels.com
