Travelling around the world Jolanta encountered the diversity of cultures and lands but she found Australian landscape, flora and fauna the most enticing. Jolanta paints in oil, watercolour and pastel. She is a member of Ku-Ring-Gai Art Society and Hornsby Art Society and she exhibited her works in several art galleries in Sydney.
 
Artist's Statement
 
"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing" said Camille Pissarro.
Not everybody can see the beauty of a sunrise, cloudy sky, a wild flower or a smile on stranger's face.
Art helps me to express my feelings and emotions. Art speaks for me and fulfils me. Art is my life.
