Anna SANDECKA-LĄKOCY (b. 1970), Seaside adventure, 2026

mixed technique (acrylic, oil, stencil), canvas, 80 x 80 cm, sign.p.d.: Sandecka-Ląkocy'26

Born in 1970. Graduate of the Faculty of Arts at the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin (graphic design, sculpture) and the Teacher Training College in Puławy (English philology). She runs the Author's Gallery in Puławy and teaches at a private school.

For several years she worked with educational publishing houses, including WSiP and PWN, doing illustration and preparing books for print.

In her painting work, she mainly uses oil and acrylic paints, working with both brush and spatula. She primarily looks for inspiration in nature - spring and summer meadows full of light and color, but also in autumn landscapes, where grays mingle with reds, reds and browns. The landscape and plants in their natural environment become an impulse for her not only to capture forms, but also to reflect on transience and the theme of vanitas.

Human beings - nude and portrait - also appear among the subjects of her works, as well as animals, birds and butterflies. The artist's paintings can be found in private collections in Poland and abroad.
