About the Artist:
Graduate of the State High School of Fine Arts in N. Wisnicz. She works as a freelancer. She has been doing easel painting for 20 years - mainly oil painting, also watercolor, painting on glass. She enjoys new challenges, learning different painting techniques, photography , animation, graphic design.

Catherine Paleta often paints paintings in a technique developed by the author. This is the result of combining two completely different techniques. Acrylic pouring is created completely at random, as an apparent chaos of shapes and colors, creating amazing structures, reminiscent of an organic microcosm; oil technique - lasers - brings out their " soul" by dressing them in feminine beauty, emotions and feelings. This is most evident in the bronzes of the "Fusion" series.
