We started where a lot of good ideas start, in a bar drinking. Our dates primarily consisted of sitting in a bar drawing together, and then that progressed to sitting around the house painting together (romantic I know. But we do have wine! ) It's basically all we do with out free time. After a few years of the paintings taking over the house we realized we needed to get a studio space, but studios in Prague aren't cheap, so instead we looked for commercial spaces we could use both as a showroom as well as studio. And Bliss Farm Gallery was born (Our daughter was born a year previous ;) !

Bliss Farm is both an online shop as well as a studio and shop located in Prague, Czech Republic. We are a husband and wife team focused on creating work from appropriated materials we find in the garbage and at flea markets. Focusing on painting we use almost exclusively oil paints to create our pieces. For this shop we are focused almost solely on "Altered Art" which simply means that we enjoy playing with compositions that already exist (such as in an old photo or painting) and incorporating our own visions and characters into these environments.

My work has progressed now that painting is much less of a hobby and more of a full time job for me, and this has caused my work to progress. Blending the boundaries between art and craft has always been close to my heart, and a lot of the ethos which bind together a lot of the pop surreal artists working today resonates with my creative process. That art not only be limited to gallery walls, but also your walls at home as well. For this reason absolutely every piece in our shop is an original, not a reproduction. Many have told us to raise our prices over the years, but I'd rather keep sending these paintings out as opposed to having them take over our home again! So we keep things affordable so everyone can own a piece of original art.
