Realism with my Brush
Agnieszka Matras, solo exhibition
20 January to 8 Feb, open every day (except Mondays) 11am to 5pm
Private View Tuesday 28 January, 6 to 8pm
Agnieszka Matrasis an artist living and working in London for over twenty years. She consider herself as self-taught artist and works mainly with oils and acrylics. Using a limited pallet and traditional approache to oil paint she tries to convey the beauty of nature and magic of colour on canvas.
She pays attention to the light and it’s impact on subjects. Experimeting with colour she captures accurately the mood and atmosphere of the scenes in her art. She gets inspired by beauty of skies and landscapes as well as seascapes and still life and animals. She does not limit her self to any particular subject and will get a brush any time her eyes meet with a view she can’t resist to rewrite on canvas.
Agnieszka is a member of South London Women Artists acclaimed art group launched by the friends of Dulwich Picture Gallery and also a member of few local art communities in South London which promote art through workshops, art shows and exhibitions. She exhibits regularly within those group.
I like to paint natural beauty : green trees, skies, seascapes. Simple words which can describe what I do are "I paint what I see and what appeals to me”. Using a limited palette allows me to experiment with colour mixes and textures to achive reflection of what I observed. I thrive on anything that reveals colour harmony or obvious contrasts. Light and shadows are also the foundation of my creativity. Changing light and it’s impact on subject matter are the motive force and endless inspiration for my art. Using various reference materials I work in my studio developing my skills and exploring painting mediums of which I was always curious and passionate about.@agnes_matras_just_art
