Graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts - Faculty of Conservation and Restoration of Works of Art. Diploma in the Department of Conservation and Restoration of Painting and Polychrome Sculpture under the direction of Professor Joanna Szpor. He also studied painting in the studio of Prof. Rajmund Ziemski - painting annex to the diploma "Head Study".
A versatile artist, he feels perfectly at home in the field of drawing, painting, collage. The most important thing for him is color, dynamics and the action of spots or textures in the picture. He often goes beyond the framework of a classical painting by combining different techniques, aiming to make the painting interesting, creative, giving the viewer the possibility of individual interpretation. His paintings are mainly a tangle of emotions more or less filled with feeling, sometimes showing relationships of unspecified characters captured in a given moment. He does not create in one style, which is characteristic of many contemporary artists, but walks along different, very individual paths. According to the artist, a painting is supposed to be interesting, inspiring, moving - hence such activities as splashing, gluing, cutting or scratching appear in his work.
His great interest in the Bible and the subject of faith has steered him into the tracks of religious inspiration, where he interestingly combines the biblical theme with contemporary means of expression. His paintings on faith fit fantastically into our daily lives, our choices and the decisions we make.
