Artist Statement
My name is Anya Vykhopen (Hoeffner). I am an inspirational artist based in McPherson, Kansas, originally born and raised in the sunshine of Florida. I have been creating for as long as I can remember.
At the heart of everything I create is my faith in Jesus Christ. He is my source, my inspiration, and my reason for picking up a brush. Through my paintings, mixed media pieces, and an ever growing world of arts and crafts — from whimsical animal doodles to heartfelt scrapbooks and one-of-a-kind 3D postcards — everything I do comes down to one thing: serving Him and others. Art has never just been a hobby, it has always been a calling.
My deepest hope and prayer is that my art becomes a doorway through which Jesus would reveal Himself to others in a personal way, speaking to souls in ways that words simply cannot. To spark a fire. To reach people exactly where they are in life.
That is why I paint and create. That is why I named my art business His Vessel Art Co.; because being His vessel is my purpose in life.
