Nadija Armusik

Nadija Armusik was born in 2002 in Hamburg, Pennsylvania. She is the daughter of Master oil painter, Eric Armusik who is known internationally for his dramatic work rich in emotion and elevated drama. At an early age, Nadija became enveloped in her father's world spending many hours in his studio watching him paint while drawing and on occasion, picking up a brush to mimic her father's work. Over the past few years, Nadija began developing a unique, Gothic surrealistic style and currently, enjoys working primarily in charcoal. Her imaginary world embraces the beauty and darkness of nature, the beguiling spiritual realm and spooky things that go bump in the night.

She has exhibited her artwork as a solo artist with her 2022 Dreams in Black and Gold at the Tamaqua Art Gallery. She participated in the Berks Arts Alliance Group Show and the FACE Juried Exhibition in 2023. In 2022, her artwork was part of the Berks Art Alliance Group Show, the 13th Annual 6” Squared Live Exhibition and Sale at the Randy Higbee Gallery, CA, the AACA Group Show at the Twisted Olive Restaurant in Bethlehem, PA, the Friends of the Art Plus Gallery in Reading, the Allied Artists of Schuylkill County Annual Juried Exhibition at the Walk In Art Center in Schuylkill Haven, the Allied Artists of Schuylkill County Member Show in Pottsville, and the Nature of Nolde Forest Art Exhibition in Cymru Township.

Nadija has earned prizes in the Art of Jazz juried art shows sponsored by Berks Arts each year since 2020. Additional awards include 2nd Place Award 11/12 Grade in the Nature of Nolde Forest Art Contest 2022, Honorable Mention in the Berks Art Alliance 41st Annual Juried Exhibition in 2021, 2nd Place Award 11/12 Grade in the Nature of Nolde Forest Art Contest 2021, and First Place Student Category in the 2019 Keystone Art Competition at the Walkin Art Center.
