About me and my work:

Hi, I’m Anna Pikos—a Polish painter currently based in the Netherlands. I originally studied Landscape Architecture in Warsaw, but my creative path has always gone beyond one discipline. Before fully committing to painting, I explored all kinds of artistic mediums: ceramics, digital and traditional illustration, pattern design, textile crafts, and more.

I discovered my love for painting in 2019, and since then I’ve focused mainly on two directions: abstract and surreal art. Lately, I’ve been developing what I call surreal abstraction—a visual language made up of fluid, organic shapes that seem to swirl, breathe, and come to life on the canvas.

For me, the creative process is less about the outside world and more of an inward journey. My work comes from a deep connection to inner sensations—a quiet, intuitive exploration of emotional landscapes that often feel both familiar and strange.

Most of my paintings aren’t planned. They begin in silence, in a meditative state, where vivid inner images start to take shape. These sensations—too subtle or layered to describe with words—just flow through me, directly onto the canvas. Once I start, the process feels almost automatic. I never really know what the final image will look like until the last drop of paint lands where it’s meant to.

  • A wild, energetic piece with exploding greens, floral bursts, suggesting nature in chaotic bloom, overflowing its boundaries.
    The spring got out of control
  • A vibrant abstract filled with clashing warm and cool tones—yellows, pinks, greens, and purple—blended and layered in a way that evokes emotional tension and complexity, like shifting flavors.
    Sweet and sour with a bitter aftertaste
  • A fluid, flowing composition featuring a bright white, ribbon-like path meandering through a muted landscape of purples and blues, suggesting motion, purity, and contrast.
    White river
  • A dark-toned painting lit with bursts of neon colors—blues, purples, and electric reds—scattered across the canvas like nightlife energy or city lights in motion after dark.
