1975, Svetla nad Sazavou, Czech Republic I graduated from a prestigious fashion design school in Brno, Czech Republic, majoring in Textile and Knitwear; this is where I developed my skill of drawing and painting. After graduating, I spent several months in England and the USA. I’m living and painting between Prague and England. I love classic paintings, especially from the Impressionist period and like many artists I’m fascinating by light and perspective. Many of my pictures feature nature, cityscapes and transport — from what I see in my life. People appear very rarely in my pictures; when they do appear they represent normal life around us. My first oil painting was in 1999 as a Christmas gift for my partner and has resulted in many more paintings since. I started with canvas sizes in the 100 x 100 cm range; all characterized by strong colour and bold strokes on a black background playing with light and shadow. A palette knife is used in the creation of these paintings. I still use a palette knife. Since that first painting in 1999, I believe I’ve developed my own style. The light is the most important part of the painting. It can give the right sparkle or completely destroy it. I try to capture the right balance of light and shadow to add depth. I’ve held several successful exhibitions in the Czech Republic. My paintings are held in private collections in the Czech Republic, UK, USA, Belgium, France, Sweden, Canada and Slovak Republic.   More pictures and information you will find in my private website: www.martinakrupickova.com, my Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/gallerykrupickova, my Instagram where you can follow me: https://www.instagram.com/mkrupickova/ YouTube presentation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0HzgT1oUf0 The painting 'Posázavský Pacifik' has been selected, from over 10,000 entries, to form part of the Royal Academy of Arts 2008 Summer Exhibition (9 June - 17 August) in London (Burlington House, Piccadilly).

Held every year, without exception, since 1769, the exhibition attracts around 10,000 entries, the selection made by Academicians chaired by the President.  Now in its 240th year, the exhibition includes around 1,200 works.
