It´s a great honor to see my work being recognized by others. On this page I will keep track on my Gallery Standouts.
"As an avid digital art journaler, I love a great artsy page. Lots of
paint and stamps just speaks to my heart. Needless to say I immediately
fell in love with this page. I love the color combination. The page has
great texture and of course I love all the paint and stamps."

"This is a style that I am seeing more and more. Art is coming to play and many people are not simply scrapping memories with personal photos. This one by Ana is out of this world!! The beautifully extracted woman is just an amazing pop of color. Then the gorgeous unicorn brings magic into the page. Finally, the small bits of flowers and the dragon fly just make this page so visually interesting! I love the artistry of it!"
"Great extraction! Love the creation she made on the layout and the
brushworks. The flashes of color, the scribbles really set the page.
Those little flowers are nice additions to the page."
"Ana's blending skills are something that I have been in awe of for such a
long time. This is a wonderful example of how talented she is. The
image, papers, paints, etc are brought together so well and the small
additional elements add a teeny bit of depth to the page. I love the
quote and the mixed fonts she has used to bring it to life. Stunning."
Finger Pointing – May 28th
"The beautifully rendered face drew me in! I like the placement of the
flower over one eye – to me, she is winking! I enjoy the flowers in many
different sizes as this helps give depth to the layout. The blending of
the word art into the background adds a soft touch. This is the kind
of layout in which one can get delightfully lost in all the layers."
"The blending here is just amazing. I can’t tell where the photo ends and the paper starts, just wonderfully done. I love the title work too, really great example of how to mix fonts and alphas to create something eyecatching."

"Let it be, indeed. Let's just sit and enjoy all the layers of this page!
First of all, the way she blended the photo into all the background and
elements is absolutely perfect. I love how her veil/head scarf blends
into the background so that those tastefully chosen elements can adorn
it. The color of the paint, gesso, and text make this background really
complement the photo."
"Perfect Moments by AnaSantos is a beautifully blended page with minimal elements… but that curled edge… amazing!"
"Ummmmm, how amazing is this? I love that the color palette and that
vintage vibe just always grabs my attention. The use of the paints is
amazing and such a stunning layout!"
"I fell in love with this page as soon as I saw it. The extraction is very well executed. The clustering is amazing. And the shadowing is perfectly applied. "
Finger Pointing – April 21st
"Next up is Make Today Amazing
by Ana Santos. This page just makes me happy! That beautiful woman
stepping right out of the background, huge smile on her face and all of
the beautiful elements – “Amazing”!"
Finger Pointing – April 6th
"Well gosh, the vacation photos are dominating the galleries today! Here, in addition to wishing that were me in the photo, I love the soft, washed-out beachy colors and arty blending. This is a beautiful work of art!"
Gallery Standouts March 17th, 2022
"I love me a good art journal page and this one really stands out. I
don’t know why maybe it is the splashes of orange? (which happens to be
my favorite color?) or the scribbled face hiden within but this layout
drew me in for a closer look and that had me loving every bit of it!"

"First up is this beautiful piece of art! I was drawn to the wonderful watercolor effect on the page, and that
fabulous picture turned to a painting! Her title is wonderful and the
blending and shadowing is amazing! I can almost smell the hot chocolate
she MUST be drinking!"
So if this doesn’t just SCREAM Christmas at you, then I don’t know what
will! I am absolutely head over heels in love with the creativity here.
The look on the girl’s face is priceless and I love that the cluster
next to her, feels like the branch of a Christmas tree, stacked with
goodies. The blending is amazing! I mean the whole thing is just amazing
and I can’t stop looking at it or trying to touch that cluster!
"This is a show stopper. The photo treatment and the beautiful way it's
the focal point, is absolutely stunning. I love the small elements that
add that yummy depth, and the super cool stamps that frame the photo
are gorgeous design choices. The title is the icing on the cake...
just a crazy beautiful layout!"
"I love this wonderful mix of graphic design and shadowed dimensional pieces. The graphic affects of the photo are just stunning. The cluster at the bottom and the sweet leaves on the edge complete the dimensional look. I truly can't even explain how much I love this. It's unbelievably creative!"
"This layout is just plain beautiful! I love the brush work and the ripped papers. Beautiful!"
FingerPointing-June 2nd
"I’m always in awe of this artist. She is always so good at evoking emotion. The extraction is beyond amazing and paired with beautiful shadowing. The messaging is on point and it’s all wrapped up in these bold beautiful colors which one could argue, that the bold colors symbolize how we should live life….BOLDLY."
Finger Pointing – April 2nd
"Now this is sooooo my cup o tea!!!! Ana Santos with NO Bad Pictures,
such a fabulous, fun page, true statement too, and here also can’t
think where to start! The wonderful extraction, the hilarious, perfect
photo, the oversized word art, all made with an artsy feel with the
background choice and some brushes, almost like looking at a movie
poster or a glossy magazine advert! Marvelous all over!!!!"
Finger Pointing – January 14th
"This fifth page attempts to close the chapter of the year 2020 which has
been very special for everyone. The photo treatment is really well done
and these two people holding hands is a message of hope for the future."
Finger Pointing - January 8th
"The Magic of Christmas by Ana Santos – Next up is a little sketchy, a little flirty, and a whole lot of beautiful. This layout has gorgeous blending and artistic grunge in yep, my favorite color “pink” creating a dynamic Magic effect. I absolutely love all the paint splatters to top it off. I ADORE This Layout!!"
Finger Pointing – December 10th
"As soon as I spotted Christmas Gift by Ana Santos on Facebook, I knew I wanted to feature it in this post. The muted tones of red and green work beautifully with the soft brown tones and the floral cluster is simply stunning. Totally love this!"
Finger Pointing, December 2nd
"What a delightful and magical page! The extraction is excellent and the look on the little girls face is so reminiscent of Christmas’ of the past. The holiday ornaments and elements hung and clustered throughout the page are so pretty and eye appealing."
"How fabulous is this page!! The extracted photo is absolutely perfectly done and gorgeous! I love the framed date and creative use of the lace piece!! The texture in the background and lovely blended webs add to the amazing Halloween theme!! I adore the pops of gold in the title and little spider!! Such a creative page!"
"And how about Free Like A Bird by Ana Santos. This page is so refreshing!! I love the photo treatment and the color balance is superb!!! Spectacular work!!!"

Finger Pointing, August 4th
Big Dream
"Wow, such an awesome page! The layering of wood, paper and elements is
really striking. I love the pop of color the flowers give to the page.
What a great concept…listing all her dreams out so one day she can come
back and take a look at all she’s accomplished and what she still may
have on her list."
"I love the photo framed by the big hands and the artsy background with the bold title work!"
Finger Pointing – June 10th |2020
Yes, girl!
"This first page catches the eye instantly with its clean side and above all its extraordinary photo processing. We don’t really know anymore if the image is a photo that has undergone a post-processing or if it is a painting because the rendering is so impressive. A wonderful work of texture has also been done which brings matter to the page."
Finger Pointing – May 31st |2020
This Moment
"There is just something so striking about this. The mix of elements, masking, paint. It’s very emotive. I love the purple hues with pops of green. All around stunning!"

Live Laugh Love
"The gorgeous color combination on this page jumped out at me right away from the gallery! I love the moody blues and blacks with the pops of green! So gorgeous! The photo treatment is simply stunning and such a gorgeous match for the paints. I adore her beautiful title work and the sweet cluster of string, flower, and painted greenery! So lovely!!"
