.Misa Verbeek was born in the Czech Republic. She attended the best business school in her native city, but could not put aside her love for art. In 2000, Misa came to the U.S., bringing with her the same hope and inspiration she had as a child. After a couple of years, Misa opened a gallery and has exhibited in Chicago and numerous art shows across the country.
Throughout her life, her emphasis has been the study of color and its emotional impact on our well-being. Whether wood, metal or abstract, the rhythm of brushstrokes...a flowing mix of muted color with the contrapuntal pulls of feelings and inspiration...she transforms realism into an equally intense observation of surface. It was here, that she arrived at her own signature style that blends several artistic genres into a blissful harmony. It needs no interpretation. Her work crosses all borders and boundaries to create an expression of spirit and beauty that all audiences can relate to.
,,Through my work, I aspire to bring our visions, feelings, thoughts and inspirations to life.''
