Jaline Pol
Born in the flatlands of North France, Jaline Pol resides in the heart of the lush countryside of France's southwest. The rich red of the poppy-flower, the striking green of abundant foliage and the sunny yellow of a summer meadow compose Jaline Pol's palette - color has always been her inspiration. In 1979 while visiting Africa, she found herself swept up in the surrounding colors. Irresistibly drawn to the multi-colored robes and wrappings of the African culture, she discovered batik and began working with oils. In 1984, Jaline Pol attended the Beaux-Arts and began working with a palette-knife painting technique. Today, many important private art collections include Jaline Pol’s paintings. Her works are exhibited in France, the US, South-Pacific and the Middle East. Jaline Pol was born 1946 in Le Catou, France. She studies at the School of Fine Arts.
