Born and raised in Poland, I was fortunate to find the love of my life when I was 21 years old.  Together with my loving husband and our two bright boys we immigrated to Canada, after spending two years in Italy.  My time in Italy exposed me to many fantastic art forms and fueled my artistic passion, giving me the opportunity to start creating some of my early pieces of work.  While living in Italy I met a number of artists who influenced and shaped my methods of painting. I experimented with textile and porcelain painting, which also helped me provide for my family, and continue doing something that I love. 

Continually upgrading my art skills I have taken classes at: Sheridan College, the Oakville Art Society, Burlington Art Centre, Haliburton School of The Arts: Fleming College, and Nelson Park Creative Centre. I have also, participated in several workshops with respected artists.  Over the years, my work has been exhibited in numerous venues and solo art shows, it can be found in private and corporate collections internationally, across Canada, Poland, Italy, and Hong Kong.

Everyday single day, I cherish my moments of creating art.  With constant influence from my present daily life, as well as my past, my paintings are works of passion, history, opportunity, and at times simplicity. I hope that art continues to fuel my fire for life, and encourages others to attain their desired goals and life dreams.
