Agata Kijanka
Floating on Spring's Soft Breath, Abstract Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
"Spring comes in gently and quietly, like a breeze, a breath, a whisper," Agata says poetically. "It nudges you softly to imagine all that can be. Let yourself float on your elation for its arrival, on the hope and promise it brings. It is time for new things. Let yourself bloom." Soft yellow, pink, green and hints of blue recall warm light on a landscape of grass and flowers. A gentle breeze moves through the scene.


About the Artist
Artist Agata Kijanka creates sensually textured abstract paintings. Working from visual and emotional memory and imagination, Agata builds each artwork in layers - applying paint with scrapers and brayers, transferring paint from other surfaces, and removing paint with solvent and blades. One of the defining moments for Agata as an artist was when she moved alone to Santa Fe from Seattle in 2008. As she explains, it was "a beautiful place that I love with its rich art related history, plentiful galleries, and inspiring landscapes. I anticipated staying for 6 months but I ended up staying for 4 years." She continued her artistic journey to Sedona, AZ and now lives in Albuquerque where she works from her home studio. Putting down roots in the southwest has influenced Agata's work, especially time in the desert, the sunshine and open skies. When she's not painting, Agata enjoys cooking, gardening in her desert yard, and talking endlessly to her rescue dog.
