Danuta Rogula
Inspired by the world around her, and never a camera far from hand, Danuta Rogula has always had an eye for beauty. Her vibrant personality and creative soul are evident in each of her paintings. “When I experience a scene in nature that has really touched me, the atmosphere, the beauty of light or just the tranquility, I want to share that with others through my painting.”
Danuta was born in Poland in 1958. She graduated with a Master’s Degree in Interior Design and Industrial Project in 1983 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. ” My mother, who was a practical person, sent me to the Technical High School of Architecture. She always kept saying, ‘Do not try to be an artist, if you don’t want to starve.’ ” With the birth of her two children, and the immigration to Canada in 1991, Danuta re-discovered painting. It allowed her to take care of her daughters, and immediately integrate into Canadian society. Her art is displayed in galleries in Canada and Europe.
