He grabbed the paintbrush at an early age, when as a minor he watched the painting activities of his father, who painted landscapes for many years in the privacy of his home. And everything pointed to Janusz becoming a painter. Life, however, decided otherwise. He had to drop out of the Academy of Fine Arts, as the mundane of life consumed him. Subsequent businesses, interests, initiatives, although they provided stability in life did not blunt the desires of the painter's artistic soul. He went through a flirtation with photography, film, but still thought about painting. In what Kulikowski paints you can see his adoration for somewhat distant times and places. Light-saturated streets, the Italian countryside, or finally automobiles and aviation. Works of art by Janusz Kulikowski can be found in private collections at home and abroad, in prestigious contemporary art galleries. His paintings are also presented in the best auction houses.
