Helga Ohannesian
At an early age, I knew my calling was that of an artist. In school, my teachers would call me “Helga the dreamer”; I would rather look at the interplay of light and shadow under the trees than play with the other children during recess. Interior design attracted me, but post-war Germany would not allow females into a then male-dominated field, leaving me to become a dental assistant. In 1962 I immigrated to the United States and settled in California. Immediately I started to attend art workshops and classes. Over the years, I have studied with many artists, including Ralph Hasenbein, Ruth Basler-Burr and Margot Lennartz.
My home & garden became my “artistic expressions”. In my minds-eye, I was “seeing” and painting – shades of different colors in a field, greens in a park, reflections on water, the flow of a steam or the vastness of the sky.
When the time was right the easel was set up again and my career as a painter took off. My subject: nature; its serenity, beauty, spirituality and mysticism. My style: a cross between realism and impressionism. My medium: oil paint. I have exhibited my work in numerous shows.
I do not paint to make statements about societal ills or my most inner feelings about life. I paint the beauty I see around me and hope each work speaks to the viewer without the need for a lesson-plan or manual, and make the viewer smile.

- Sheep, South Downs, last day of June II, Animal Painting, Countryside ArtLocated in Deddington, GBSheep, South Downs, last day of June II is an original landscape painting by Anna Pinkster. It was inspired by time spent sketching and roaming on the South Downs in East Sussex. I loved seeing the sea glistening in the background. Throughout my career my work has been inspired by my environment - the people, places and cultures that surround me. Following graduation from West Surrey College of Art in 1994 with a first class degree, I traveled extensively in India, South East Asia and Africa creating figurative work which endeavoured to capture people immersed in their daily lives, offering an insight into the essence of a different culture. Commuters in London and bathers on the beaches of Dorset have also inspired my work but, during the national Covid lockdown, I became fascinated by my local landscape in Somerset. I have since visited Wales and the South Downs, creating work in oils and charcoal, working directly from life then refining ideas in the studio. I am most excited working intuitively, directly from life, whether it be a life model in the studio, a flock of sheep in a field or, my most recent obsession, birds in my garden - I find an intense energy and freedom which, I hope, is evident in my work. I have exhibited regularly in London at the Mall galleries SWA, RP, NEAC and Pastel Society, and in the South West, winning prizes including the Prince of Wales Drawing...Category
