Discovering metaphors in abstract photography.

“Nature’s replacement for screen time.“

Abstracts. They're everywhere!

Sparking imagination, encouraging open-mindedness, and making sense out of life.

Impressionist Photography

Hi, I’m Ann. I see things.

I am an abstract photographer with an eye for detail, a champion of things overlooked, and a weaver of patterns of connection.

My abstract photography art is my creative passion.

I think deeply about my images.

Then I write.

I create metaphors from my abstract photos.

Metaphors stretch how we think. Adding words to these abstract photos bridges gaps in understanding.

Words can build a connection between us. And that creates a community.

Peace, calm, and inspiration. I hope that’s what you find here. And once in a while, a chuckle.

Welcome to Annstracts.

Now go see things.

Testimonial examples.

This is why I do what I do.

The benefits of abstract photography art.

“…abstract art frees our brain from the dominance of reality, enabling it to flow within its inner states, create new emotional and cognitive associations, and activate brain-states that are otherwise harder to access. This process is apparently rewarding as it enables the exploration of yet undiscovered inner territories of the viewer’s brain.

Where to buy abstract photography art.

Online. Right here.

If you are searching for unique, authentic, and original abstract photography art to express your style, you are in the right place.

As you explore this site, I can almost guarantee you won’t see the same artwork in your doctor’s lobby, in the grocery store bathroom, or in your neighbor’s house–unless they have awesome taste. Hahaha.

Seriously, I keep seeing one abstract piece in all of these places. So sad. There’s so much art in the world, and yet the big-box online art galleries sell the same thing over and over because it tickles an algorithm.

Express yourself for goodness sake with art that speaks to YOU.

Choose inspiring messages so the art on your walls speaks to you.

Well, not literally.

I bet there’s a way to make it speak. Hahaha.

But really, you’d prefer peace and quiet, I’m guessing, right?

Seriously, when we connect with art, we are connecting with ourselves. The artwork you decorate with inspires you, makes you feel appreciative, and sparks meaningful conversations with others.

When you purchase artwork directly from the artist, you are not only helping a creative being like yourself; you can know more about the background of the artist and the piece. The more you know, the more you’ll make an emotional connection to the art and the greater appreciation you’ll receive from your investment. Plain and simple, it just feels good. And that’s what we all want more of, right?

I’m a big believer in having positive energy surrounding me. And once you know more about the art, the process, the artist, and the vision, you’ll know if the energy will offer your living or working space with the right vibe. Explore for yourself.
