She is a painter and art therapist, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań and the Academy of Special Education in Warsaw, where she majored in art therapy. For many years, she has combined her artistic practice with education and working with people, believing that art has the power to develop sensitivity, build relationships, and support inner balance.
After years of working as an art instructor and art therapist, she returned to painting intensively, which is now her primary focus. In her paintings, she seeks harmony between color and form. She creates both figurative and abstract works, exploring themes such as still lifes, figures, and animals. She is interested in the emotional dimension of color and its impact on the perception of a painting.
She is a member of the Warsaw Association of Visual Artists and the Association of Polish Visual Artists. She actively participates in the artistic life of both organizations, taking part in numerous group exhibitions. Her works have been exhibited, among other venues, at the Norblin Factory, the Warsaw Gasworks Museum, the Krużganek Gallery, and during the DAP Salon on Mazowiecka Street in Warsaw. She has also held two solo exhibitions.
Painting remains her greatest passion, and sharing her knowledge and experience with others is a natural extension of that passion.
