Ana-Li Gresham

Artist

Ana Li Gresham is an artist and graphic designer living in Naches, WA. She has a passion for the outdoors and finds inspiration at every turn while hiking and exploring in the Cascade mountains. She grew up in Cheney, WA, with an artist father and a mother who loves quilting and all things arts and crafts. She has a degree in Graphic Design from Western Washington University, and has been a freelance Graphic Designer since 2006. 

She continues to work on artwork and it is her true passion in life. Ana Li’s favorite art mediums are acrylic painting on canvas, watercolor with ink, and wood burning on a variety of wood materials. She also uses both the acrylic painting and wood burning techniques in combination to produce very textural and unique one-of-a-kind pieces of art.

Her main art themes are nature, conservation, and science. She has a passion for communicating a love of the natural world and hopefully inspiring others to care for and protect it. A new series she’s working on is called “Endangered Species of Washington State”, highlighting animals in our local habitats that need our awareness and help.

Ana Li has recently started collaborating with other local artists, Doug Lewis a wood turner, and Lyn Lewis a natural fiber weaver. Together the group has created some 3D pieces highlighting their collective talents. Ana Li is a new member of the Women Painters of Washington group.
