« A painting lives only by the one who looks at it. »

Pablo Picasso

48 year old self-taught artist from Thiérache. I train at the school of life, according to my friendly and artistic encounters. (Lille, Berlin, Paris, London, Lyon). Coming from a broken and close-up family, I am a woman of my time, divorced with 2 teenagers, who did not give any importance to school, except to artistic activities. I took courses at L'Ensba, and in different groups of enthusiasts. My style can be applied, volcanic, colorful, evolving according to my understandings, my emotions, my environment. I explore various themes, freedom, transmission, peace, war, environment, human relations... with an approach of improvisation, adaptability, overcoming. My works seek to find buyers, to continue to live according to my values hoping to transmit them to lovers of art, beauty, sensitivity and emotions


A passion for creation

My quest for color

I like the color, I know its hypnotic, narcotic power.

It touches, it hits, it radiates, it floods, it swallows by its vibrations.

Sometimes powerful, sometimes light, nuanced, harmonious by its variations. Pure emotion, she can touch without explaining. Seductive, she can only be pure pleasure of the eye.

I'm trying to tame the color.

My quest for the trait, the form

The form, the trait, which orders the world, contains it.

Order, calm, clarity.

Make the picture intelligible and sensitive to faith.

My quest for matter

I like the dough, its density, its heaviness, its opacity, the resistance it opposes to the gesture, the strength it suggests.

I appreciate the light materials, the fluidity they transmit to the gesture, their transparency, the light they suggest.

I work the resin for the depth and intensity it brings.

Freeze on the canvas energy, emotion, suspended time. Subordinate the form to the substance, all at the service of an emotion. Traits, light colors, transparency doughs, the intention is what connects these elements to the service of the emotion of the meaning that I want to transmit. Each of the paintings I give you is a step, an experiment, an exploration, nothing is constant if not change. These paintings are sometimes strokes of brilliance, sometimes caresses.
