Depicting iconic cityscapes from around the world using a keen eye for structural beauty, Maja Wrońska continues to capture a dreamy and refreshing quality in her paintings. Encapsulating scenes from Seattle to Amsterdam, Wrońska uses watercolors, pastels, and sometimes coffee, to create artwork that shares her love of architecture and travel. First and foremost an architect, Wrońska began painting during her studies, using her knowledge for planning and designing buildings as the main inspiration for her drawings.
The skylines she paints not only consist of cultural symbols, but are works of art in and of themselves. Her choice of colors produces a whimsical and fresh look that transports the viewer to the city she is illustrating, as a result of, the painstaking detail and dexterous shading Wrońska beautifully showcases.

If I didn't know better, the SF skyline had a subtle hat tip to the late great Herb Caen

It's been almost 15 years for me. I'm with someone else now, but I still dream and cry in my sleep. I'm blessed to be with someone who understands I still feel honored I was married to the man I lost, but equally honored to be with the man God blessed me with today.
All my best to you and yours.
