Natalia Banasiuk
Born in 1995 in Grajewo

For as long as the artist can remember, she has been fascinated by creation.
Even in her early childhood, at the age of 6, she loved all kinds of manual activities. She remembers that at that time the best gift she could get were paints, and it has remained so to this day.

The artist is a colorist. Her works are intriguing in the way she uses color. Examples are interpretations of portraits and self-portraits, which occupy a
a special place in the author's work. They become a pretext for the manipulation of color and free variations on its theme. The author particularly finds herself in painting, to which she often also weaves elements of drawing, which gives very interesting effects. The works are charged with emotions. Letting herself be carried away by her intuition, the artist boldly plays with convention. Natalia Banasiuk consistently creates her vision of art, striving in it to achieve the artistic absolute.
