It is difficult to write something meaningful about myself, perhaps it would be easier to paint about myself.... maybe someday... but in the meantime I often walk around with my head in the clouds, which is probably why I reached for the paintbrushes. I got involved with painting so seriously in 2013, when I set up my studio in Szczepańcowa, a small village in the Subcarpathian region. What characterizes my works is dreaminess, fairy-tale worlds, silhouettes of people gazing at wonderful lands, sometimes escaping into a time of carefree and childhood. My work can be divided into two types the first is that flowing from the incessant need to dream and rise above reality, the second a bit more down-to-earth inspired mainly by nature , which I try to surround myself with every day. So far I have had 4 solo exhibitions and participated in group exhibitions in Poland and Slovakia. I invite you to enter my slightly magical world, and maybe you will find something here that will stir your imagination.
