Explanation:
Here is a quote that I think confirms the use that you are encountering in your translation. It is talking about a local artist and his abilities.
Quote:
En su momento fue calificado de histórico. El artista plástico irreverente, fino y detallado, ***también restallante en el manejo de la paleta y de los tópicos tratados***, hacia fines de 1960, había viajado a la ciudad de Washington, Estados Unidos, para lanzarse a una de sus más apasionantes trabajos pictóricos: elaborar o desarrollar creativamente un mural de 162 metros de largo en un tunel de la Organización de los Estados Americanos (OEA) con el respaldo de cincuentena de colaboradores que asistieron a la mente febril de Páez.
