Ewa Lanrecz Interview
Who are you and what are you doing?
I come from Poland, where I live and work, my real name is Ewa Czernal-Suliga. Lanrecz is a nickname.
Why art?
I am a very sensitive and emotional person, painting has always moved me, although I am not able to define exactly the word Art and what is hidden in this word. For me personally, if the image evokes someone’s emotions, joy, emotion, anxiety. For aesthetic reasons. This is art for me and be able to convey it in a picture, it is art. Today, there are a lot of artists, brave artists who want to convey some moral values, whether to provoke but if their paintings do not evoke for the recipient of emotions due to aesthetic reasons. I am not accomplished I am sure of the artistic value of such a work.
What is your earliest memory of the desire to be an artist?
I have been interested in painting since I remember, the first paintings were made in my head for several good years. I pour them on canvas. I create my paintings under the influence of emotions, under the influence of survival. I am sensitive to the beauty of nature, hence a lot of flowers in my painting. Painting allows me to create something that arises in my mind, allows me to convey my moods, my feelings to build a vision, I will never plan the picture to the end, it is created with me, in my mind, and later on canvas and I experience each job in my own way.
What are your favorite topics and media?
I paint with acrylic paints. It dries quickly, which allows me to work faster in accordance with my temperament and lack of patience. I don’t think I have exactly the subjects. I love painting flowers, still life which symbolizes something, abstraction drew me in because I let my imagination run wild and if personal experiences come to this. I can convey all my emotions there and all my temperament and if I can do it to some extent, I am happy! Although never completely dissatisfied, I have a great distance and are humble with my work.

What advice did you give to other artists?
I can do whatever I want and like. What advice would I give to other artists? I have no right to give advice to other artists, because I’m not sure if I deserved such a title myself, I never think of myself. “The artist sounds proud” and this is one from my dreams. I can say so about myself, I can only tell people who have passions and dreams that they never give up!
Where do you see yourself in 5-10 years?
hahaha and the hardest question … how is that? … in the best galleries ….. I’m a dreamer !!!!!!
