I was born in Poland in 1967. In my personal development and later interests a major role played my early contact with nature and animals. I am a animal and equestrian artist. I also make hand engraving and illustration for magazines.
I have always been very passionate about realism. With no formal art training, my best learning experience have been by trial and error, followed by many more hours in my studio striving to reproduce that perfection of light, composition, contrastand harmony of colour that I observed whilst in the wild. However, I drew a lot of my ispiration from master artists like Sir Alfred Munnings, Ivan Schischkin, Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski whose work very distinctive. My paintings, drawings and engravings are the result of many hours spend observing, sketching and photographing wildlife and their unique habitats. My work are collected worldwide : Unted States, Africa, Russia and all Europe.
As a animal artist I support David Shepherd Wildlife Fundation and Capercaillie in Poland.
I have worked as a professional hand engraver and designer for the last 20 years specjalising in the fine ''bulino'' style of engraving and gold inlay, my client list includes the world-famous London companys : James Purdey & Sons, Holland & Holland and Watson Bros.
I presently resides in South East England
