Paysages oniriques à l'aquarelle : capturez la lumière

Katarzyna Kmiecik is a Polish watercolor artist, illustrator, and educator with over 17 years of experience in perspective drawing and 12 years in watercolor instruction. Her teaching combines technical precision with artistic intuition, built through years of classroom practice and collaboration with brands such as Winsor & Newton, Etchr, and DK Publishing. Her work, recognized by awards including the Rising Star at IWM2022 and second place at the Fineness Watercolor Festival, reflects a strong command of light, color, and atmospheric depth.

She focuses on painting cloudscapes and luminous landscapes, using layered washes and intuitive brushwork to evoke mood and movement. Skies, sunsets, and fleeting light inspire her visual storytelling, often developed without preliminary sketches to preserve spontaneity. Classical music and observation of nature fuel her creativity, supporting a process rooted in emotional resonance and visual balance. Her workshops, online content, and growing library of resources offer structured yet inspiring guidance to those eager to develop their watercolor practice.
