About

Ana Quintanas

I am Ana Quintanas, a Brazilian visual artist and painter. I began my journey in painting in 2015 and, since then, I have built my training through courses, experiences with different artists and practice, exploring techniques and possibilities to find my own expression.

I am the daughter of Anilfa Quintanas Morais and Julio Morais. I grew up in a family that, despite a path marked by challenges, always found room to encourage my creativity. That support is part of my story and of who I have become.

My painting has a connection with naturalism, but it also opens up to different languages and styles. I like to explore colors, landscapes and elements that move me, allowing my experiences and my way of seeing to be present in every work.

Today, I share my life with my husband Felipe and our son Benício. Between painting, motherhood and family, I keep building my path, learning and finding new meaning in what I do.

At many moments in my life, when words, paths and even strength failed me, art remained. And perhaps that is why today I have such a strong desire to share it with others.

“I like to explore colors, landscapes and elements that move me, allowing my experiences and my way of seeing to be present in every work.”
