Education:
- Blending modern insight with old world training, Anita is an American impressionist trained primarily in the Russian school of painting. In the tradition of Russian Impressionism, Anita strives to be abstract in the details while still achieving the perception of reality.
- Anita first studied art at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City when she was-six years old. She took art classes thru high school. As an adult, 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 studied classical portraiture for a year with Elvie Davis, at the Boulder Academy of Fine Art. Elvie Davis was a child prodigy of Clive Martindale who was John Singer Sargent’s apprentice for 19 years. Anita also studied for three years at the Art Student League of Denver with Jay Moore and Kim Mackey.
