Welcome to my Seeking Beauty in Ordinary photography blog. I am Poland based fine art photographer, graphic designer & web designer. For almost 20 years, I used to work as an Art and English teacher at all school levels. As a designer working on commission, the needs and tastes of my clients are priority. While photography is my way of self-expression, my true love and passion. I took it up in 2009 and each day I’ve been learning something new about photography, technique, gear, etc. Looking at the world through the lens made me see everything in a sharper way, more consciously. I have learnt to notice beauty in things commonly perceived as ugly, ordinary as well as I have learnt to sense some mystic energy surrounding me each day.

I hope you enjoy my through-the-lens vision of a world I share with you on this site and find my Art language tips useful. Your comments are an invaluable feedback to me.For more information about my work visit my Painted with Light website. Contact with via my BEHANCE Pro Site.

IPA AWARDS - Life Always Surprises Me

It is 4 weeks now, when I am stuck at home with my broken leg, looking through the window at the Sun and missing the opportunity to do outdoor shooting. I learn to be patient this way:) Yet, to my surprise, life has some unexpected pleasant things for me, too, just to keep everything in balance. During these weeks of my compulsory stay at home and time of reflections and seemingly doing nothing special, I have sold more works than during the rest of this year.  I have also got more assignement work concerning building websites  than ever before. And to my greater surprise, all the websites I have done recently are for people, who share similar outlook than me.
It's a real pleasure to create a website for someone who 100% trust your taste and accepts all the projects you do. I wish everybody and myself too for the rest of my life to have exclusively such clients. The work then, even it takes much time, is never considered to be a hard work:)

Some other good news reached me yesterday:) Two of my two submitted works to IPA The International Photography Awards contest have been awarded with Honorable Mentions. I do remember my deep concern while submitting the works as it was the time when I was completely without money and couldn't afford to submit more photographs. I would never know the outcome if I sent more works of mine to IPA. Nevertheless, I am glad with things they are.
