One of our featured artists for the month of March is someone you’ve probably seen outside with her easel, painting around Roanoke!
Paulina Swietliczko’s work is inspired by everyday life, people, objects and the landscape. Native to Poland, she holds an MFA in Painting and Lithography from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Poland where she studied with Rajmund Ziemski and Jaroslaw Modzelewski. In 2012, she moved to Virginia from California, where she was a community college art instructor and an artist in residence at the Fresno Art Museum.
Currently, she lives in Roanoke, where she paints, teaches art in her downtown studio and is involved in the local art scene.
About her work, Paulina says she likes finding magic in the mundane ✨
Come see the texture and nuance of her observational paintings in person at the gallery. We’re open today (Thursday) until 4pm, Friday and Saturday from 10 am to 5:30pm, and Sunday from noon to 4. We can’t to see you!
