Artwork location: United Kingdom

This vivid and evocative artwork meticulously captures the essence of a bustling city street on a rainy day, utilizing a brilliant play of colors and abstract forms. At its heart, the painting features a series of figures holding umbrellas, rendered in a strikingly impressionistic manner that breathes life into the urban scene. The artist expertly uses bold strokes and a palette rich in contrasting hues. The umbrellas, vividly painted in shades of red, blue, yellow, and green, become focal points against a more subdued, yet textured cityscape. Each umbrella seems to float, creating a dynamic movement that guides the viewer's eye through the painting. This creates an impression of continuous motion and vibrancy, reflecting the relentless energy of city life. The rain-soaked ground is depicted with a remarkable attention to detail, as elongated reflections of the figures and umbrellas dance on the wet surface. This visually enticing element not only captures the mood of a rainy day but also amplifies the depth and dimension of the scene. The reflections are rendered in a way that almost abstracts reality, enhancing the painting's dreamlike quality. The background, a symphony of muted tones and blurred outlines, suggests towering buildings and city infrastructure. However, the lack of distinct detail in the surroundings emphasizes the anonymity of urban life, where the focus rests on the human experience and interaction within the vast cityscape. This interplay between defined foreground figures and an undefined, abstract background creates a harmonious yet poignant juxtaposition, highlighting the transient nature of daily human endeavors. The most compelling aspect of this artwork is its ability to evoke an emotional response through its masterful use of color and form. The viewer is transported to a familiar yet fantastical urban environment, where the ordinary act of walking in the rain is transformed into a captivating visual symphony. This painting is a testament to the artist's skill in blending realism with abstraction to produce a piece that is both relatable and profoundly artistic.

Imagine it at home

Ewa Czarniecka, The Way To St.Pauls
United Kingdom  • 1975

Presentation

 Ewa Czarniecka is a Polish born Artist from the small South-Eastern village of Krasiczyn. Naturally one of her early influences was the work of Bronislaw Linke which she first discovered aged 13, when she would try and mimic his artwork to recreate the overwhelming feeling she felt to see it for the first time. 

For years Ewa used pen and paper to express her thoughts, spending hours everyday writing in a journal. When she started painting again as an adult, she discovered a clarity and an ability to articulate her ideas much more clearly. Ewa finally had a medium where she could communicate all of the little details that she observed from the world around her, often focusing on that flicker of light, dappled shade or the pattern your eye can see but a camera would miss. 

Ewas work lies somewhere between Abstract and Impressionism, gesturing at shapes and figures while capturing light and reflections with loose brush strokes. Her work is often heavily textured with bright colours and demonstrates fantastic depth.
Ewa enjoys the creativity of playing with what people can see. She strives to capture the feeling in that moment rather than the literal reality, for her this is a massively liberating and emotional experience. 

Moving from Poland to London was a vital part of Ewas career as an artist, she found the perfect environment to sell her work. On Bayswater Road in Hyde Park, every Sunday Artists would line the streets displaying their paintings for sale. Eventually, as work became more popular, selling countrywide, she wanted to focus on her work without the distraction of Londons hustle and bustle, Ewa and her husband made the move to the Welsh Brecon Beacons, a much more relaxed and familiar surrounding.
