Team
Jana Komaritsa
CEO
I am a multidisciplinary artist and the person behind WonderCat. You can read more about me here.
Orange
Executive Director
Orange is a rescue cat from the shelter. He is a fighter and lost one eye on the streets. But he is is safe now and is one happy stay-at-home cat. He is my helping hand in running WonderCat.
Kitty
Inspirer
Kitty was my soul cat. He had passed away in 2020 at the age of 16. He grew up at the farm in North Dakota, USA but he was a world traveler. We had an incredible bond, he still lives in my heart and continues to be my inspiration.
Reviews
“Atmosphere was warm and relaxing, everyone was super nice. While on vacation, my mom and I took an awesome painting class with Jana! We both had zero painting/drawing experience and had such a blast! Jana showed us different techniques and helped guide us. She was very big on showing you how but having you actually do it! highly recommend taking a painting class with Jana!! We took a cat painting class but she offeres different types.”

Nekita
“Another SUPER fun class! Jana is so gentle and restful in her approach. “
Mayr
“This is one of the best classes I’ve ever taken. I’ve never done a study of a painting. The way Jana explained things really helped me understand how the painting came together. Thank you!
Nancy
“Please convey to Jana my deep appreciation for her wonderful and skillful pedagogy! I have now taken 2 of her classes, and really felt inspired to continue.”
Lis
“Really fun! Jana is so friendly and really encouraging! She’s an incredible artist and can improve the drawing with just a few strokes.”
