Artist Bio
Escaping Communist Poland at a very young age of six, along with her parents, and starting a new life in America, exposed Natasha to deep emotions and experiences. This began Natasha’s journey into Art.
As a young girl and teenager she created doodles and sketches of things she enjoyed, which she rarely showed to anyone. She found art as a way to escape her fears and give her comfort. Creating art became a doorway into a way of expressing herself.
Years later, when she attended Drake University, in Des Moines, her professors realized she had natural talent for drawing and painting and encouraged her to pursue both. As she did, she found that she adored painting. She loved holding a brush, all the beautiful colors of paint, and held a lust for a blank canvas. She studied the Fine Arts at Drake University, and her professors, I. Widiapraja and G. Torrence, educated her in the technicalities of her practice, pushing Natasha beyond her comfort zone, allowing her to acquire a style and a freedom of her own in the end.
After her college years, Natasha traveled throughout the world and the United States, and finally settled in Las Vegas, NV. This is where her home and artist studio is. Her career as an artist, a painter (as she likes to be called), has blossomed. She stays active in the art community doing art exposés, fundraisers, and setting up art shows. She enjoys pushing herself as an artist and craves to leave her mark in this world through her Art, always remembering she is still that little girl form Auschwitz, Poland.
“It is the unique which ultimately unites us in Art, love, and life”, she expresses.
