A course by Katarzyna Kmiecik
Katarzyna Kmiecik is a professional artist and illustrator, best known for her dreamlike depictions of landscapes. Ever since she can remember, there hasn’t been a day when she wasn't drawing or painting. Her love for art dates back to her very early childhood. In 2012, she started Art School KRESKA in Poland, where she’s been teaching watercolor and perspective drawing, and has been an art instructor at an architectural drawing course in Warsaw since 2007.
Because of the global pandemic, she found herself being forced to start teaching online, and by doing so, she was able to reach a bigger audience and gain recognition around the world. Through those many years of painting with watercolor, she’s developed many experimental techniques, and has also improved some of the commonly known techniques to best suit her needs as a landscape artist. In her work, the most common motifs are trees and clouds, because she has a special love for them. She always looks at nature and the light through the eyes of a child–absorbing and remembering small details and colors with great delight.
Katarzyna is the recipient of the Top Rising Star Award in the International Watercolour Masters Competition 2022.
