Artist Name:
Kasia Turajczyk

Statement:
I believe that we are here on this planet by accident and not for long, actually. And because our existence is meaningless we shouldn’t take ourselves so damn seriously. If we could do this our lives would be 100% more tolerable. Our duty is to be happy, honest and free. Free in our minds. I hope I express this way of thinking in my paintings.
Biography:
I started painting and drawing as a child. At the age of thirteen I started taking art classes and training. Two years later I sold my first painting. I also wrote poems and short plays for my high school/college cabaret. As a child I wont a few art competitions. I studied art at private ateliers in Lodz in Poland and in Vienna in Austria. I also have a university degree in Slavic languages and literature, which I obtained in Lodz and Amsterdam. I have also studied Philosophy at University in Lodz, Poland and management Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. My first experience as a working artist took place during a three month period in Austria, after I graduated as a Master in Philology and then left Poland. As a vagabond I moved from one to another of the beautiful villages and small towns in Austria. I painted the Pubs, Inns, Hotels, Restaurants, Villas and interesting buildings and sold the results to the owners, tourists and passers-by. I didn’t expect that I could make such a lot of money! I had enough to stay in local hotels, dining every night in pubs or restaurants, to buy new painting paraphernalia, to travel and to have fun. The summer that year was hot and sunny. The views were magnificent, and so were the food and the wines. The people were willing to pay good money for my water colours and I have to admit that my first experience of being a working artist wasn’t so bad. I have painted my whole life but I never made a full-time occupation of being an artist till 2003. From 2003 I decided to do so. Most of my time I have spent painting and writing, and I regularly exhibit my art and publish my poems (including several radio interviews and my own poetry readings). I am very hard busy with developing and finding myself as a professional artist. I am a member of the BBK in the Netherlands (Professional Union for Visual Artists.) Most paintings I have sold via private networks and to order. Besides painting and writing, I worked as a freelance advisor for non-profit organisations in the Netherlands and in other countries.
