IMAGINATION LIVES HERE
Original art. Unexpected creations. Made by hand.

I create because I've always seen a little more possibility in ordinary things. Paint, wood, stone, jewelry—sometimes I don't know what something wants to become until I start creating.
I was born in Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, moved to Israel when I was ten, and now call Florida home. Each place has influenced the way I see color, texture and the world around me. I’ve always enjoyed looking at things a little differently and exploring what they might become. That curiosity is what keeps me creating across painting, mixed media, jewelry and whatever else happens to spark an idea.

“Meeting Kai Lava was such a wonderful experience. Her Hawaiian roots and connection to spirit are such a big part of what drives her art. And she is just the sweetest, most genuine person — so warm, easy to talk to and an absolute pleasure to spend time with.”

“Wyland’s art has been part of our home for many years, so meeting him was especially meaningful. From his monumental murals around the world to his Olympic art and lifelong passion for conservation, his story is an incredible reminder of just how far an artist’s imagination can reach.”

“Spending time with Alexei was an experience I’ll always remember. He is a true master, and watching him work and hearing him talk about art and light gave me an entirely new appreciation for his extraordinary talent.”

“Meeting Michael Cheval was such a thrill. His imagination is incredible, and the detail in his work just amazes me. You can look at one of his paintings over and over and still find something you didn’t see before. Spending time with him made me appreciate his talent even more.”

I love mixing materials, textures and unexpected elements, letting each piece become whatever my imagination has in mind.

I begin each piece with a vision in mind, but allow the materials and my instincts to guide me as I work. I believe that the process of creating art should be just as fulfilling as the finished piece.

Influenced by the colors and textures of nature and the places I’ve called home, each piece is handmade with its own personality and a little touch of the unexpected.
Whimsical ornaments handmade by Anita's niece, each with its own individual character. Each ornament is handcrafted with attention to detail, playful color and imaginative touches that make every piece uniquely its own.
Have something in mind? Let me create a one-of-a-kind work inspired by your ideas, your colors, your space—and sometimes just a little imagination.
