Paula Anderson was born (Ana Paula Malho) in Lisbon, Portugal. Her first large scale piece was when she produced twelve stained glass windows for a newly built chapel and she was able to share with the world her vision of light, colour and her personal experience with the ethereal.
Once in Canada, she pursued more formal training at the Ontario College of Art where she learned how to capture light and motion in her art. In her florals, she allows the viewer to feel her deep connection to the beauty, movement, light, colour and the ethereal source of their existence.
