When I ask myself - what does my art mean to me?
The answer is obvious - Wings.
And now I know that you don't have to be an angel to have them.

I present a unique collection of ceramic tiles that combine beauty and functionality. Each tile is unique and perfect for adding charm to any interior. We create them together with Robert Tokarski, transferring original paintings to the ceramic surface and then firing them in a kiln. This process ensures durability and vibrancy of colors, so the tiles maintain their beautiful appearance for many years. Our tiles are available on the website Pozytywne Malowanie , where you can find a variety of patterns and sizes.
I create unique icons on natural stones, hand-painted with oil paints. Each piece combines traditional iconography with the raw beauty of the stone, giving it a unique character. These one-of-a-kind artworks can become a spiritual and artistic accent in any interior.
