My first work in the studio was in the ceramic classes of Warren MacKenzie, at the U. of Minnesota. I then studied with Phil Cornelius, in California, while my theory and aesthetic perspective came from the lectures at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts in Poland. I earned a doctorate in Modern Languages and Linguistics (U. of Minnesota, 1987); yet, since my early childhood, art has always been my first love and passion. Additional graphic design and computer art courses broadened my access to the digital media, especially valuable in producing “Prairie and Woodland Flowers Coloring Book”, and “Torn out Memories” for BV County Historical Museum and my most recent book for children, formatted with the assistance of B.V.U. Professor Rebecca Frates. I sculpt in stone, metal, and wood, experimenting also with various techniques in printmaking, computer graphics, oil, water media, and egg tempera paintings. Incorporating ceramic forms on wood panels painted in egg tempera, I am promoting this vibrant medium in my workshops at the area art museums and galleries. I am concerned with the ephemeral moments of human interaction and portray them in my art to direct us away from the territorial to the temporal self. Focusing on the subtle relationships between nature and human emotions I aim at the symbolic elements of landscapes, showing these enveloped in mists, rain, or imbued with a mysterious light. Human figures are essential presence in many of these landscapes. The titles of my works often allude to and draw upon my other art pursuits: poetry and classical music.Currently I listed several art topics. Among those are “Sacred and Profane Art” - the ways artists represent human image from the sacred icons of the Byzantine period through the Renaissance images of human body, and finally through the contemporary art and caricatures. Other subjects include: “Sienese Painters of Egg Tempera”, several on Slavic art, music, literature, poetry and culture throughout centuries. All my talks are illustrated with pictures in PowerPoint of art works under discussion.The exhibit, titled “Angels and Workshops I have offered are: Egg Tempera, painting techniques (Sioux City Art Center, Witter Gallery)Figurative and Perspective Drawing (Sioux City Art Center, Witter Gallery, Pearson Art Center)Egg Tempera and Egyptian Paste – for Chemistry in Art interim at B.V.U.Sculpting Figures in Terra Cotta and other clay media (Pearson Art Center)COVER –to- COVER, create your own books, story and illustrations, Pearson ArtCenter.…My first work in the studio was in the ceramic classes of Warren MacKenzie, at the U. of Minnesota.
