The Village Gallery welcomes October’s Artist of the Month, Gosia Tojza.

Gosia Tojza has lived in North Carolina for 17 years, using nature and landscapes for her inspiration.

“Today no silence will stop me from painting, I have a lot to say, through beauty and small things in life. I translate the language of soul into colors and shapes. I appreciate the process and how meaningful it can be because I have watched it my whole life. The fragile soul in each of us can be found in the form, the colors, the shapes and strokes, this is why some paintings speak to us more than others. I am inspired by mysteries of nature, that sometimes are being taken for granted. And when  I paint, I feel as if though I am close to some kind of mystery.”

The Village Gallery is at 300 Hodges St in Oriental, open 10a until 5p, Wed – Sun. The Gallery displays the art of more than 30 member and consigned artists. For more information, call 252-249-0300 or visit villagegallerync.com.
