Artworks by Anna Roussou

I am a Cyprus-based artist originally from Ukraine, creating contemporary oil paintings inspired by the sea, silence, and the connection between humans and nature. Having worked for many years as a photographer and visual storyteller, I bring a strong sense of composition, light, and atmosphere into my paintings. The sea is at the heart of my work, while whales appear as symbols of freedom, wisdom, trust, and inner strength. In 2026, I held my first solo exhibition in Cyprus, presenting a collection of large-scale oil paintings inspired by the world above and below the water’s surface. Through my work, I invite viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with something deeper within themselves.
