#ART by Dominika Kędzierska
The artist has created a unique style in her works, characterized by subdued colors and a perfect approach to detail. Her painting creation, out of the desire to share beauty with the recipient, is a form of her spiritual practice. While creating, she tries to present a whole range of emotions.
By juxtaposing female portraits with elements of nature, the artist experiences both her own transformational cycles and synchronizes with the world around her in a daily life. The painter would like the contact with her art to be as calming as contact with nature, and presented states of the inner side of female to become a mirror of self-reflection for the recipient.

#ART BY ŁUKASZ WIECZOREK
Łukasz Wieczorek, a young artist whose talent was born out of a passion for expressing emotions in artistic works. An ambitious young chef by occupation, working in the profession on a daily basis and successful in this field. He has been painting for 2 years, considering it a hobby and an opportunity to “catch your breath” in a rather busy life of a chef. “It started with an attempt to paint a picture which was supposed to be an element of the apartment interior design. My painting aims at expressing emotions, either positive or negative, and that’s what these pictures are, they convey feelings ... In my opinion painting pictures and the work of a chef have a lot in common when it comes to creativity and expression”.

#ART BY HANNA BAKUŁA
The Artist – Painter, Writer, Columnist – Hanna Bakuła. Known as “Witkacy in a skirt”, Ms Hanna Bakuła is an artist of many talents, a graduate of painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, the author of 20 publications, a long-term columnist in magazines for women and men, and also a designer. She has established the Hanna Bakuła Foundation, which helps children from orphanages. She actively supports women and their projects, describing herself as a soft-feminist. “Pandemic Flowers” is a series of art works presenting flowers which, as the only “models”, Ms Hanna Bakuła was drawing during the lockdown. Painting flowers is a very difficult matter not to turn out a piece of kitsch. They are too beautiful. […] During the pandemic, they happened to be the only available models. I was embarrassed by the first floral pastels. After a few, I realized that I had wasted many years using them as background elements of the portraits rather than the main motives. Hanna Bakuła. You are welcome to watch Hanna Bakuła Author’s Evening at the Platinum Mountain Hotel & SPA.
