Zana embarked on a transformative journey from Serbia to New Orleans, driven by her ardent love for art and the city's vibrant atmosphere. Immersed in the cultural richness of New Orleans, her artwork underwent a profound metamorphosis, becoming a spiritual exploration of feminine mystique. Guided by her mantra, “Close your eyes to see,” Zana's creations echo her deeply personal journey and resonate with viewers worldwide. 

Her artistic expression has garnered prestigious accolades, including invitations to showcase her work at esteemed events like the annual Art in Bloom at the New Orleans Museum of Art. 

Alongside the pride of launching Zana Brown Studio Gallery on Magazine Street in New Orleans,  her art also can be seen on walls of many private and public collections throughout the world.

Beyond her professional achievements, Zana finds solace in the quiet moments of early mornings in her studio, accompanied by her beloved son, Luka, and her unexpected companion, Lola the tortoise.
