Biography
A native of Pomerania, the artist graduated with honors from the Art Department at Stratford Career Institute, during her stay in the USA. She honed her workshop as a member of the Long Island Art League. After returning to Poland, she opened the Rumska Painting Studio and is a founding member and secretary of the "Passionate" Artists Association. She is co-author of the "Artists for Education" and "Rumski Plenera Malarska" projects. Her achievements include numerous exhibitions, collective and individual, and participation in plein-air events in Poland and abroad (Italy, Jordan, Cyprus, Kazakhstan). Jola Kitowska is a person infatuated with the world of the African savannah. After a trip to Africa, she began painting the Kenyan series, largely based on silhouettes of animals and people of this distant continent. New forms of expression emerged, elements of surrealism, and artistic exploration also moved to the exotic nature of other countries visited. The most important series are: "Kenya- Returns", "From the life of a giraffe" and "Life on the savannah".
