Anna Wypych’s paintings are united by positive feelings and encouragement

Internal Strength

It was March and I was just starting Ito paint a new work. The project was ready, and it was time to start to draw on the canvas and then paint. Meanwhile, something that has been gaining momentum had just reached my country of Poland. Overnight everything changed. This influenced my work and my painting started to change too.

I paint what I feel. Everything that surrounds me has an influence on my projects, feelings, and thoughts. Even what music I listen can have an impact on the painting.

The pandemic found me in my small apartment where I had just built my minimalist art studio. In that 3-square meters, I gathered everything I needed to create. Isolation was continuing, the world was changing, my painting was changing with everything. While working, I slowly rejected any unnecessary additions to the project, looking for the essence, looking for a base, a safe zone from which we could always draw strength, no matter of my surroundings.

All of my paintings are about internal strength—this is something that’s always on my mind, and as a result, it unites all my paintings. This time, I also wanted to share something positive with the recipient, give encouragement and pay it forward. I was looking for a point from which we all can draw strength. I was seeking universal comforting.
