Audrius GražYs

I was born in the family of actors Bronius Grazys and Nijole Narijauskaite. Before studying acting, my father dreamed to be a painter. However, after he saw the paintings of other entrant students of the Academy of Arts, decided, that his painting are worthless, tore them and started acting studies. But he never gave up painting. Besides acting, directing and painting he was a passionate collector of art cards, antique books, badges, stamps, clocks, famous people signatures, but most of all he was in collecting works by Lithuanian painters.
Our home was always filled with actors, painters, musicians and students of my parents. Firs art history lessons I gained while father was over and over presenting his collection to our new guests. He talked about painting styles, coloristic and composition. Being a kid and seeing such a number of good works I was not able to decide which ones I like the most. But still even then those that needed interpretation nailed my attention. Now I know – they were abstract works. Probably, that’s where my style got it’s roots. I am interested in how color and spot, their compatibility or strain can affect the viewer
