Sławoj Ostrowski and an appendix to Drawing and Small Sculptural Forms. Thanks to the ERASMUS scholarship, I completed the summer semester at the Academy of Fine Arts in Perugia (Italy).

These three areas interpenetrate and complement each other in many respects, they give me a lot of joy in creating and the opportunity to express what is important to me.
In my painting and sculpting works, I use an original technique with the use of flax fibers, which allows my paintings to “go out” into space and gain a third dimension, as well as look into the depths of the carved forms. In my sculpting technology, I use dyed flax fiber, a material taken from nature.
I had the opportunity to present my works at many individual exhibitions and participate in collective exhibitions in Poland and abroad.
As a painter, animator and supervisor, I co-created 'Loving Vincent' ,studio BreakThru Films(2017),

As a child, I found immebse pleasure in painting and drawing. This recreational activity soon blossomed into a passionate hobby, as interest in artistic interpretations and depictions grew.
Almost half of a persons's life passes at work. So, it's extreely important to make the right choice of profession. I believe that the choice of a future profession must be in accordance with the individual's abilities an talents.
Most of all I like painting. I have chosen this path not to join a trend and follow a crowd, but because fine art evokes spatial attention i have desire to explore it. This prpfession demands on you to give it all your energy and passion , and one must be fully dedicated to it in order to achieve perfection.
Generally , modern life open new horizons for artist, and I can work in many fields today. My family and friends doubt this is q right decision. At the same time nowadays iit's difficult to earn your living with painting. But I don't agree with them.
I has experimented with several mediums, such as acrylics, pastels, and watercolour, but oils tend to be my most preferred medium.
The nature has always been my my greatest teacher and sourse of information, inspiration and techniques. I have strived to improve my craft with every new landscape or widelife picture I have painted. French imressionist painters such as Claude Monet, Camikle Pissarro and Pier-Auguste Renoir advocated plein air painting, and much of their works was done outdoors.
Its important achievment for me to participate in many solo and group exhibitions.
