Summary/Abstract: The presentation of the artwork of outstanding artistic personalities associated with the tradition of Polish Podhale to prove the thesis that indigenous traditions and customs can catalyse creation, not only popularising it through the use of common forms and meanings but individualizing the creation, which makes the artwork and the creative process unique. An attempt to compare the creative achievements in order to show that similar sources of inspiration bring artists to a different visual expression and do not restrict their personal preferences. The summary of the article will be the presentation of conclusions drawn from exercises during which students, inspired by the same Polish legend, carried out a visual interpretation of the story they had read in the spirit of the traditional graphic craftsmanship. The article will be illustrated by an exhibition of graphic works made by students of Education by Art.
