Anna Kovina is a multi-media artist based in Richmond, VA. Having grown up in Soviet Russia and Uzbekistan, Anna came to the United States in 1995 after the fall of the Iron Curtain.  She earned a BSBA in Finance and a JD from Georgetown University and practiced law in Palo Alto, CA.  With the birth of her second child, her parenting journey led her to rural Sonoma County, CA, where she and her family embraced farm life. While staying at home to raise her young children, Anna began the process of reinventing herself by deep-diving into the world of the contemporary fine art.  She is now a sculpture and painting student at VCUArts. In 2022, Anna was awarded the Vikki Katel Memorial Scholarship in Sculpture.
