"HEROES 5"/ acrylic painting/ not stretched/ high quality canvas/ dimension 140/110 cm. I send only the canvas in a tube. I attach a certificate of authenticity. Kariko ono_Karina Antończak. At present I live and work on the outskirts of the Warsaw. I am a painter, architect, a woman and a mother. My artistic achievements include series of paintings on various topics. This is strongly dictated by my current emotions. I have some of series like HEROES- abstract portrait work, PLAY WITH ME -geometric abstraction, Landscape- SWIMMING POOL, LINE-Mixed media. I do not paint from nature (any subject, be it faces, landscape or abstraction), I create an image from a bank of memories and from there they go on to abstraction. I show a vision of a constructed world with my own words. To me, the relation between colours, lines, their weight, tensions and the forces ruling the composition are important. I was always a painter and I became an architect somewhere along the way! I was an immature, unconscious painter at the High School of Fine Arts; studying architecture and my subsequent career an architect shaped me and my personality. It gave me the courage to live according to my nature. For20 years, my paintings can be found in private collections internationally, including collections in America, United Kingdom, France, Canada, China, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Denmark, United Arab Emirates, Cyprus, Australia, Singapore, Austria, New Zealand, Lithuania, Brazil, Ireland, Romania Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and more.
