KAMIL KUBIK NEW JERSEY STATE HOUSE POLITICS TRENTON GOVERNOR LOBBYIST ART PRINT:
$100.00

Before he died, Kamil Kubik, International Impressionist, was commissioned to paint a number of NJ locations for the State House. The first one he painted was this one.......THE NEW JERSEY STATE HOUSE. It\'s just so detailed and gorgeous. If you love politics or are connected in any way to this well known, breathtaking building,.......you would love to own this print. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have and I have written some of my background with Kamil below so you feel comfortable buying from me. What an amazing gift this would make for someone who has a connection to this great building or this new administration. Kamil and I were close friends and I have a huge amount of his art to sell. If you have no interest in this particular subject then please keep checking. I will be posting more originals which are quite rare and some of his greatest signed and numbered prints.
BACKGROUND
I met Kamil while working for the State of New Jersey. We had an idea to find a talented artist who might accept a project that would memorialize some of the State\'s most recognizable....interesting locations. The collection would ultimately hang inside the State Capitol Building where it would remain for years to come. The Senator I worked for had a friend who owned a collection of paintings by a rather well known Czech Impressionist, Kamil Kubik. A lunch was arranged for us to meet and the rest is history. I adored this artist, his temperament and above all else, his work. My mother was Czech so Kamil and I had an immediate connection that turned into a lifelong friendship. He gladly accepted the project we had discussed and once it ended (which took almost 10 years since we commissioned only one painting per year) Kamil, his wife Joanna and I continued to maintain a strong friendship. We visited often and shared holidays. Kamil was an extremely accomplished artist but not so great a businessman so I began helping him to market his work. It was during those years that he began to give me some of his more popular prints and a few of his originals as well. This STATE HOUSE was the most personal since it\'s where I worked for more than 2 decades. I\'m not sure who has the original but I know many State Senators, Lobbyists and other elected officials were given one of Kamil\'s prints. I have the rest. I sell Kamil\'s art to help my son pay for college which, as many of you understand, can be difficult for kids to handle. Once that debt has been paid, I will keep whatever art I have. I love almost everything Kamil created and deciding what to part with has been extremely difficult. Each one reminds me of the many crazy years I spent with Kamil before he died. He was truly a wonderful person, spoke 5 languages and loved New York City. He did projects for the NY YANKEES, DONALD TRUMP, WALL STREET ORGANIZATIONS, THE PLAZA HOTEL and he created a world wide series of paintings of hotels for THE RITZ CARLTON HOTEL organization. Everyone loved Kamil\'s easy, impressionistic style. He could create a complete piece of art in an afternoon but would continue to work on it FOREVER. He never felt like his work was finished. As always, he would start his day with a swim at the local Y, practice his YOGA and then begin working in his studio. Sadly, on a particular Fall morning, he suffered a serious stroke that left him paralyzed and ultimately in need of 24 hour care. It was a devastating turn for this man who had lived such a strong, active and healthy life. He continued selling most of what he had created before eventually developing pneumonia and passing away. I had continued to help him during that horrifying time and was blessed to be the person sitting with him on the evening he quietly passed away. I still miss him terribly but am surrounded by this beautiful art which keeps him and his spirit present. The WORLD CUP SOCCER hangs in my kitchen and is a favorite of both of my sons. My husband is a Veteran and loves THE BATTLESHIP NEW JERSEY which was part of the NJ series I had commissioned him for so long ago. One of my best sellers is THE ST. PATRICK\'S DAY PARADE of which only a handful remain. We all love THE NY YANKEES, CAPE MAY, THE BARNEGAT LIGHTHOUSE, the NJ STATE HOUSE and more. I have the original painting of THE MORRISTOWN GREEN which is exceptional. And then there are the majestic WASHINGTON DC subjects that Kamil painted because of his close friendship with First Lady BARBARA BUSH and PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH. THE INAUGURATION may be Kamil\'s finest work along with the US CAPITOL and more. I know this is long....but I want people to know who Kamil was, what he did and how much I loved being a part of his life. Please ask any questions, I am happy to try to help if possible. I promise you will love anything you buy of Kamil Kubik\'s work and for sure, he would love that you wanted something he created. I\'m sure he is still painting somewhere!!! :)
