I was born in a polish village amidst a beautiful Jurassic landscape. My parents worked day and night so I was raised by wild animals. I spent all days among Jurassic monad rocks and streams teeming with fish, wading watching the fish play, catching them in a jar, watching their fragile bodies against the summer sun. I wished the stream would flow through my house so I could lie on the bed and watch all the treasures of the stream flow by.
One day when watching the life in the stream a beautiful trout with red dots came up to me and said: Come with me, you should leave your negligent parents and follow me to the source, where I live. And I followed the trout thirty years later. I started to paint at the age of 40 because of a Great Jungian Dream in which I drew cristalls out of an undercroft lava lake, I turned them into my paintings and sculptures by pouring boiling water on them. After a few months of training I even passed very difficult entry examinations at the Fine Art Academy in Cracow!
