Artist, watercolorist, psychotherapist, and art therapist. She has been drawing and painting since childhood, and for over a decade has been developing her own artistic language in watercolor. She is fascinated by the medium’s lightness, fluidity, and unpredictability. She studied, among other places, at Rafał Rudko’s Watercolor School, and continues to develop her skills by participating in international masterclasses and watercolor festivals.
At the heart of her work are people, their bodies, emotions, and relationships. In her latest sensual series, the artist explores intimacy, passion, and sensuality, most often painting two intertwined figures. Some of her works are created on wood, which allows her to combine the delicacy of watercolor with the more material, organic character of the surface.
Her works have been featured in numerous group exhibitions in Poland and abroad, as well as in solo exhibitions, including “Intimacy” at the Metamorfozy Gallery in Warsaw, which participated in Museum Night 2025. In 2025, she won second place at the IWS Poland festival in Rybnik, was named among the top five works at the Watercolor Festival in Céret, France, and her work was selected for the Top 200 Rising Stars in the International Watercolor Masters competition. Her works have also received honorable mentions in the Watercolor Golden Brush and IFAM Global competitions.
She lives and works in Warsaw. She leads workshops on figurative watercolor painting and is expanding her educational activities, sharing her own experience and perspective on the human figure through art.
