Hailing from a family of accomplished painters, Berenika Drazewska started painting early in life. Berenika is currently studying for her BA (Hons) degree in Painting at the Open College of the Arts (UK). Her most recent solo exhibition (in April 2025) was at the annual Polish culture festival in Singapore, co-organised by the Polish Embassy.

Since moving to Singapore several years ago, Berenika has focused her artistic practice on capturing in paint its wonderful natural light, which is why she frequently paints outdoors. She has benefitted from the direction of the contemporary Singaporean master Ong Kim Seng for several years now.

Very sensitive to the ephemeral beauty of light and shadow, Berenika makes them her primary subject across the whole spectrum of her work which spans landscapes, streetscapes and still life. She is endlessly attracted to watercolour’s transparent washes, subtle movement and the medium’s unpredictability. Besides watercolour, she also paints with soft pastels and oils.
