Today we are featuring Maria Muchararska, an artist with a playful style. We spoke to her about her art.

When did you become involved in art?

I was born Poland into an artistic family, so I had a feel for art right from the beginning.  After the divorce of my parents, I lost all the chances to developing myself or take an education in that field.  In Poland and in my case at that time, this was not possible.

I started art seriously in 1999, beginning a full-time Art & Design course in college at the same time.

What inspires your work?

Life, just life inspires my work!  ……Life is the biggest creator of everything!

What do you hope to achieve from your art?

I don’t know…..I just like to pass messages to people…., my pain, happiness and all my strong feelings.   Mostly the passing on of someone close or whom I love or animals, that make a deep stamp on my soul…..I don’t want them to disappear! I wanted or want them immortalised for eternity.  Also wars or other human tragedies ‘shake’ me strongly and I want to pass my small message to mankind, I want to stop them.  I know that it is unreal, but that is a small thing, which I can do…..

Do you have any long term goals?

Not exactly……I would just like very much to see or hear from somebody, who likes and understands my art, that’s all….
