Breakthrough contest winner

I recently read that there are more successful artists from Poland than anywhere else in the world so I was not surprised when Artist Representative, Richard Solomon called me to announce the winner of  “Breakthough” – the contest for artists worldwide. Michal Dziekan, michaldziekan.com, a 26 year old illustrator from Warsaw, Poland (freelance illustrator for book covers, editorial/advertising illustration, t-shirt/character designs, and animation) won. He was the selection of 20 Judges, all working industry pros, over 400+ entries from 15+ countries.
We wish Michal luck when he visits NYC Art Directors this Fall and know he’ll help his country in their bid to become “European Capital of Culture 2016”.
