Her artistic excitement is fed by her enchantment with the beauty and exuberance of the natural world where the beauty of nature is transformed into art values. So charmingly insignificant and unpretentiously graceful, the floral motifs has often been used by the artist for its fragile beauty and moving gentleness that perishes so quickly. Maria Dziopak, paints traditional landscapes, floral motifs of vivid, warm and fabulous colors. She also paints women, melancholic, sad they are like butterflies, their life only very brief. Be in Norwegian fiords or typically Polish fall landscape, architecture of a severe scandinavian coast, Egiptions garden, all these works ar created in direct contact with nature. The world shown in her paintings, is the world of vivid colors of the sun in a harbor town, of Burgundy red of the tree in the fall, or or the white-turquoise wave of the rough northern sea, it is the meditations no the beauty of nature. Maria's pictures give the impression of being created without a moment of hesitance and imbued with the breth of a Spring wind, the smell of grass and the warmth of sunshine, painted rapidly, energetically, they are to retain what is essential in the fascination. They contain strong dynamics and spreading on impact which accompanied the artist in the creative process.
Maria Dziopak is well educated, she studied painting at the Silesia University in the studio of prof. Andrzej Kowalski. In one of the articles, Maria Dziopak, was defined as the only living Polish Impressionist working with nature. Why she creates? the point is, not to get lost in the chaos of the world, to be able to discern the master from the impostor, to sort out the good from the bad, and - what is the most important - to realize the difference between means and ends. Art can be a pleasure or a kind of therapy, but it can also be a way expressing oneself and describing the world. The great pictures by Maria Dziopak, all have one thing in comment; each conveys a strong feeling, sadness, compassion, or the simple but indescribable pleasure to enjoy them.
