Dogs Portrait

Every dog has a story and a unique bond with their human. My portraits honor this relationship, using visible brushstrokes and warm colors to capture not just the likeness, but also character of each dog. Each portrait is individually composed, with choices color, background, and pose that emphasize mood and presence. Dog Portraits is a visual tribute to the companionship, loyalty, and unique stories carried by our furry friends.

Human Portrait

I approach portrait painting as a dialogue rather than a representation. Through conversation and carefully selected references, each painting develops slowly, guided by character, mood, and subtle human expression. 
Hand painted portraits of individuals or accompanied by their dogs, exploring presence, intimacy, and emotional depth.
Each work is composed individually. 

Artist Statement

My painting practice is rooted in attentiveness to what becomes personally significant — moments, figures, and relationships that invite closer observation. I am drawn to what interrupts the flow of everyday perception, prompting pause and reflection. Through painting, I seek to honor places, individuals, and phenomena that resonate on an emotional and sensory level.

A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, where I studied in the studio of Professor Adam Wsiołkowski, I work primarily in acrylic and oil. My practice centers on figurative imagery, with a particular focus on emotional presence and the interactions between people and dogs. These encounters serve not only as narrative elements but also as carriers of intimacy, memory, and mutual awareness.

The painting process begins with a preliminary sketch on canvas, followed by an intuitive application of color. I work with dynamic brushstrokes and a tactile approach to paint. Movement, expression, and chromatic intensity play a central role in shaping each image, allowing the emotional resonance of the subject to emerge.

In addition to my personal projects, I create commissioned portraits, striving to capture the unique presence and character of each subject. Whether through intimate studies or commissioned work, my aim is to translate the subtleties of human emotion and connection onto the canvas.
