An Artist’s Journey Across Canvas and Celluloid: Poland’s artistic spirit took root in me amidst Kożle’s cobbled streets. In the late 70s, New York City’s vibrant pulse ignited my passion, nurtured further by Florida’s sun-kissed shores. From a young age, the whisper of graphite and the symphony of paint became my language. High school saw me devouring every art class, my hunger growing like an airbrushed sunset over Miami. Fate smiled when International Fine Arts College offered a scholarship. Immersed in Miami’s art scene, I transitioned from airbrushing T-shirts to learning how to capture souls with photography under the internship of David Vance. Here, I learned the art of loving your craft, of pouring excellence into every pixel and brushstroke. Before graduation, freelance gigs for graphic design proved my skills, building the confidence that landed me at Art Directions, a Miami design powerhouse. Esso Oil, Burger King, Disney – I honed my skills on these giants, the thrill of commercial art fueling my fire. The brand design evolved into Green Dot Design, my own agency, crafting award-winning campaigns for Fortune 500s to mom-and-pop start-ups. Yet, the ocean’s allure whispered too, and I began painting its vibrant denizens, their fins flashing across canvas. But the restless pulse of storytelling yearned for another medium. Film became my new canvas, and I directed, filmed, edited, and distributed three award-winning documentaries that captivated audiences worldwide. Today, my art is a kaleidoscope, reflecting pets, people, landscapes, and even the rush of a wave caught mid-curl. The joy of creating something cherished, a thing that sparks meaning, fuels my brushstrokes. Whether it’s high-octane branding or a whisper-soft portrait, I embrace the diversity, each project pushing me to new creative frontiers. Let’s talk art. Allow me to capture a piece of your story, a spark of your love, and translate it into a masterpiece that whispers long after the final brushstroke.
