My name is Elizabeth Urbanowski. I was born in 1949 in Warsaw, Poland. I lived in the USA in 1989. I graduated from the economics school and worked as an accountant. Art interested me since childhood, I always liked to visit museums, old churches full of paintings and sculptures, read a lot of books about painters artists, and also watched many biographical films and albums about them. My parents did not agree with the artist's profession. I had to put my dreams away for a long time, but whenever I had free moments, I attended art courses. I completed decoupage courses on canvas, on glass, on wood, and also metal. Decoupage art taught me how to work with acrylic paints. I went to the scrapbooking training card making. Only when I retired, in 2014 I could go back to my old dreams. I began to create art, painting my first paintings. In the decoupage technique, I have decorative plates, bottles, glasses and boards. The most abstract to me is when you paint intuitively from the depth of the soul.Two years ago I found an article about the medium that improves the flow of acrylic paints. Pouring me very fascinated, it gives a great opportunity in painting, so i tried it. Why this technique you might ask? Because it is mysterious, unpredictable, and not fully discovered. Acrylic funnels are difficult to tame, it is governed by its own laws, and the end result is a resultant of many components. The technique gives me a feeling of happiness, fulfillment and satisfaction. The joy it gives me when I lay me eyes on the final product.
