Meg Krakowiak Art Gallery & Studio
Meg Krakowiak is a contemporary award-winning artist best known for her vibrant use of color creating original art that “Brings Happiness into Your Home.” Initially inspired by Degas and the beauty of pastels, Meg creates work exploring color, light, and texture.
In 2010, Meg created her business model combining both her working studio and retail gallery into one space. This plan allows Meg to create, meet clients and showcase her work all at the same time. Her studio is front and center, visible from the street so that patrons and passersby can watch Meg paint and/or come in and talk to her and appreciate the process of creating original art.
“Art makes me feel good. My goal is to create happy, colorful original art that will help people see the colors around them and welcome the beauty of original art into their homes.”
Meg owns and operates Meg Krakowiak Contemporary Art Gallery and Studio at 60 S. Palm Avenue in downtown Sarasota, FL. Her clients live around the world, including collectors, current and retired Fortune 500 executives and members of congress. A portion of Meg’s work also involves creating large-scale commissioned work for interior designers, homeowners and builders.

Customer Reviews:
“Amazing artwork full of color and excitement. Artist has her studio in the gallery, and we enjoyed watching her create her masterpieces. She also does custom work for her numerous clients to meet their color, size and other aesthetic interest. First Friday of every month there is an art walk for all the galleries on the street from 5-8 pm.” – Mark J.
“Her blending of colors is amazing and the energy she portrays in painting the sailboats is striking. We commissioned four paintings. I have no doubt these will be a great addition to home and ‘wow’ guest when they arrive.”– Mary M.
“Meg Krakowiak’s gossamer paintings, consisting of landscapes and seascapes, portray light and color in a dreamlike mist.” – Elizabeth Krammer, art editor of the Louisville Courier Journal.
