Few weeks ago I was approached by Wayne from WerkShoppe, an American company based in California. We had good flow from the very beginning and the result is that we are now working together to create beautiful puzzles.

For me as an artist cooperations like this one are always a nice break from the easels. To see my art on a new platform, a new product – that makes me smile.

About WerkShoppe

A few years ago we realized there were so many artists out there doing amazing work but struggling to be seen. It made us wonder; what if we could bring these artists’ work to a larger audience, so they could continue to create? And how can we help people discover all this new art by making it really accessible?

So we decided to create WerkShoppe.

We see ourselves as an Art & Design community first. An online gathering place and ecommerce platform where artistic collaborations with emerging and established artists are turned into creative products.

We help people connect with art and with each other. We’re definitely picky about the art we love but we’re not snobby about where to find it.

Art brings us so much happiness and we want you to feel that way too.

Our first products are beautifully made puzzles designed to help you press pause, featuring really interesting artists. We love it, we love what we do, and we hope we can share that love with you.

Press Pause,

Ann – Marie & Wayne

I’m often asked the question ‘how long does it take you to finish a painting?’. There is no definite answer, for several reasons : 1- I am working on multiple canvas at the same time (oil paint takes several days to dry); 2 – all paintings are different and some elements simply take longer to paint them others; 3 – it all depends on my mood. If the weather is nice, if I haven’t drunk too much wine last evening – it all affects the pace of work.

It’s good to be an artist: P I can work when I feel like it (and I always feel like it), I can take a break and go for a coffee or not take a break and paint, for example, all night long.

Quick paintings are certainly not easier to accomplish. They simply require more precision and are more expressive at the same time.

From time to time a painting is created in one session. This has its advantages, such as the freshness of it, expressiveness or the intensity and continuity of the narrative. It also has its drawbacks – it requires more focus from me and leaves no room for mistakes. I like this quick process because it better reflects what’s on my mind at a given moment.

My friend Łukasz Bozycki had an idea to make a time laps video and try to paint a painting in one go. He set up all his gadgets, set up the lamps and sat me inside all of it with a blank canvas. He turned on the recording and went for a vodka (or some noodles, I don’t know), leaving me in the studio for a few hours in a very uncomfortable position ….
