About Kitti and her art
Kitti Garaczi is a Hungarian-American self-taught artist. She is passionate about art. When she paints, she feels alive the most.
Millennials don't work with old patterns, they go after what makes them happy. Especially when it comes to their careers.
Art was always part of her life, even at an early age she drew, later she was art major in elementary and high school. She finished a window dresser/decoration designer school in Hungary, which was a good base to go to study as an architect at the university.
She described herself as a self-taught artist, because no one taught her how to paint, she bought her first oil paint when she was 28 years old. What she learned in school were conceptions, limitations, and mostly art history. Attending art school or art course may teach you technics but does not make you an artist. You are become an artist through your life experiences.
In 2014 she moved to the US. Shortly thereafter she got married, had her son, the years were just flying by. She had seemingly everything you can wish for, but something was missing, and she did not feel complete.
One day she asked herself the question: What am I missing?
For over a year she couldn't figure it out. She didn’t see the forest from the tree. She had to put the pieces together. She knows she likes to draw and paint, but she did not consider herself good enough. Then one day she finally made a decision to paint and become a full-time artist. Only a couple of people in a million are lucky enough to know what they want, most of the time you have to search for it. Once you have found your calling it needs dedication, effort and lot of time invested into yourself.
Since then, her creativity opened up and ideas just started flowing in.
Thank you for being here, we hope you enjoy her work as much as she enjoyed creating them.
