This oil painting was finished in early 1990s and it is about two brothers growing up in the city of Warsaw after WW2. The year is 1958, the older brother is 15 years old and he is going to take his younger 4 year old brother for a ride on his brand new bicycle. The bike is a GDR built, black sport "Diamant". The two brothers are standing in the playground outside their apartment. The apartment is in one of the newly built brick buildings and the playground is a football field size yard filled with ruins of buildings destroyed during the 1944 Warsaw Uprising. Their sisters are nearby and are playing on a carpet hanger made out of iron pipes called "trzepak". This painting is dedicated to my three beloved siblings: Włodek, Zdzisia and Mirka and our glorious city of Warszawa.

Andrew Walaszek, a contemporary artist residing in Northwest Arkansas, boasts a life and career as vibrant and multifaceted as his paintings. Born in Washington, D.C. in 1954, his artistic foundation was laid during his formative years spent travelling across Europe. From the rich history of Warsaw to the dynamic streets of Glasgow, each location (including Belgrade and Minsk) undoubtedly enriched his artistic perspective. Walaszek returned to the U.S. in 1977, settling in Chicago. For many years, he skillfully balanced a successful career in software development with his artistic passion. It wasn't until 2014 that he fully embraced his artistic calling, establishing a studio at Lake Avalon in Arkansas and dedicating himself to painting full-time. Walaszek's artistic repertoire is a captivating blend of styles, encompassing figurative, abstract, and expressive forms. His creative spark ignites from diverse sources - historical and contemporary events, the whispers of his imagination, the ever-evolving world of technology, and the breathtaking landscapes of the Ozark Mountains. This rich tapestry of influences allows him to translate his experiences and emotions onto the canvas, captivating viewers with his unique artistic vision.
