Joanna Chrobak

Polish traditional painter Joanna Chrobak's work is reminiscent of gilded medieval paintings.  The elongated limbs of her figures and the curve of the bodies creates a sense of regal elegance.  The beautiful ornate clothing and the often elaborate yet strange backgrounds evoke a surreal dreamlike quality in her work.  Her beautiful work is full of mythical and religious symbology which begs the viewer to consider more deeply the meaning of her work.

Andreea Anghel

Traditional artist Andreea Anghel's paintings and mixed media pieces are raw and powerful. The figures she portrays confront and demand the viewers attention. We are compelled to look and truly see the humanity in her work, faults and all. Her figures are raw and exposed, yet profoundly beautiful and sublime in their complete disclosure. The use of black, white and reds on one hand, and contrasting hues on the other, evident brush strokes and expressive drips adds to the feeling power and vulnerability of the human body and psyche, making her work a deeply evocative.

"The whole theme of my work is based on the human condition and degradation...from sins to problems or simply human nature. I've started to create them when I was 16 and I hope to keep exploring these depths. To me, they represent not only a message to my viewers, but also an attempt at trying to see beauty in imperfection." ~ Andrea Anghel
