My painting is begun from emotion. That emotions builds form and climate of picture. All the cycles show the full scale of my feelings and experiences. I am fascinated by the personality of Carl Gustav Jung. Particularly important for me are issues concerning the archetypes. Especially the archetype of "the Great Mother," "Shadow," "Self". www.palkawinek.art.pl
