„For me, art is one of the forms of communicating with people, communicating without words. Through my painting, I can express myself in a non-verbal way. I love the diversity of the world and it is from this diversity that I draw inspiration. This is why my paintings are so diverse, both in terms of themes and techniques. My paintings are just as diverse as the world is. I love painting with oils and watercolors. In my paintings, I try to convey positive emotions.”

What’s your background?

I was born in 1987. I am a graduate of the University of Warsaw. In fact, I do not know when my passion for art began. For as long as I can remember, I have liked to paint. And so it has remained to this day. As a child, I attended classes in the drawing and painting studio. I have had many exhibitions, my paintings win awards and are published in art books.

What does it mean to you to win the Collectors Art Prize?

I am very happy with the award I received. It is a great honor for me to receive such a prestigious award, because it means that my art is appreciated, and it is the greatest joy for every artist. This award helps me believe in myself and continue on my artistic path, because I can see that this is the right direction.

What do you think is the role of art in the world today?

The word "art" is certainly no stranger to anyone. It has always been important. Art expanded knowledge, sensitized to beauty. I think it's the same today. Art expresses feelings, emotions, experiences and everything that surrounds us. It can be a source of peace, inspiration, fun and entertainment. It allows us to move to another world. Art is a signpost that shapes our worldview. And although sometimes we don't realize it, art accompanies us every day.

What would it be if you could change one thing about the art world?

I would like the artist's work to be the only criterion for his evaluation. So that nothing else matters: neither age, nor sex, nor education, etc...

What are your most significant professional achievements?

I am very happy with every opportunity I get. I will always remember my first individual exhibition in my hometown Ciechocinek and the awards I received for my art: ATIM'S Top 60 Masters in New York, Woman Art Award in Paris, Prize Donatello in Florence, Prize Leonardo da Vinci in Milan. I am also very happy with the publications where you can find my paintings - e.g. "Art Anthology VI", which can be seen at the Spanish National Library in Madrid.

What do you wish to tell viewers about your work that might not come out explicitly? What do you hope to inspire with your artwork?

My art is as diverse as the world is. I love this diversity and draw inspiration from it. I think the world is beautiful because of it. That's why I don't limit myself to one topic or one technique. I experiment and change. I want to show all the colors of the world. Although my paintings are diverse, they have one thing in common - in each of them I want to present positive emotions.

What advice would you give to the upcoming generation of artists?

I think the most important thing is that you always follow your heart. Do what you like, not what is trendy or what sells. Only then you will be original. Follow your dreams and never give up. Not everything in life goes as planned, but obstacles in our path actually help us achieve our goals.

In what direction would you like to see your career go in the next five years?

I would like to follow the path I am on now. Always evolving and trying new things. I don't make big plans, I'm waiting for what life will bring.
