A distinctive characteristic of Renata Retrová's paintings are subtle colour transitions, often disappearing in larger areas of the canvas. However, the artist has also mastered the contradictory technique of painting with a spatula, which results in pasty rough surfaces suggesting the outlines of the depicted landscapes, flowers and trees.
Her paintings can exude a stoic calm as well as overwhelm the viewer with excitement. Occasionally she paints a portrait, which in most cases is dominated by a kind of darkness and "uncertain surroundings". It is easy to read in Renata's paintings a sense of spirituality and harmony, as well as subliminal depictions of life's sudden events.
