oil, canvas, 120 x 60 cm, signed l.d.: Ms.

Born in 1995 in Lubliniec.
Graduated from the Jan Długosz University of Humanities and Sciences in Częstochowa with a master's degree in painting. She earned her bachelor's degree in the studio of Professor Marian Jarzemski, while her master's degree in the studio of Dr. Bartosz Frączek.
Since childhood she has been passionate about painting, photography and nature, thus combining these fields based on photos or her own imagination, she paints oil paintings depicting nature and landscapes.
In painting, she values expression, dynamism and spontaneity, preserving in the frame the transience of a given moment and the constant changeability of nature, which keeps her paintings in an atmosphere of impressionism and fairy-tale-like. A special role is played by colors, through which she wishes to convey to viewers the positive energy and joy that comes from pure interaction with art.
She is currently working with several art galleries and her paintings are in private collections in Poland and abroad.
