Piotr Wolodkowicz is a post historical artist, his paintings start with a color idea and then he develops the abstract composition in which the color is the primary subject. Balance, vibrancy, simplicity are his primary goals which he achieves through his landscapes. His work romanticizes places that might not seem noteworthy but are beautiful in those short moments when they exist. He was born in Poland and now lives in Chicago Ill. His art education started in Poland and then it continued in Wright College and Oakton College. He has been involved in numerous curatorial projects with International Art Group and Phantom Galleries that focus on a dialog between cultures and show that art is our common language. He is the President of Elk Grove Village Art League and a vice president of the Polish Arts Club of Chicago.

There is a lot of things to do.
The Polish Arts Club show is coming up.
There are meetings and lots of bsiness to attend to.
I know it will be a great show with so many great artists.
But I need to paint.
Painting is the thing to do and there are paintings to finish.
While everybody is asleep.
It is time to paint, let the muse ring.
I guess that I don'tuse this much but I should.
There is so many things going on that I should let you guys know about themonce in a while.
I have strarted to read Kafka, but don't have as much time to do it.
I have read most of the Half Finished Heaven by Tomas Transtromer, I like his poetry but find it mostly depressing.
The snow outside is getting to me too, to cold to do anything. I wish for some grylling weather.
The Oscars are starting so talk to you next time.
