My
work is special like any other artist's work of course. I'm
autodidact because I've never followed art academy. Everything
that's coming up in my head I paint it and I use for this
oilpainting on canvas. I like to paint personages, animals and
flowers.
With
my brush I can make relief and it's just like I did it with a
knife. I've never learned that technique. The colours predominate
on all my paintings. I use heavy colours that jumps in the eye.
Painting is my life and my paintings are my treasures. I cannot
live without them and without making them. I put all my feelings
and moods in it. It's my way to express myself. I am crazy about
flowers and settings since I'd been a little girl.
That's
what pushed me to make Le vase de cattleyas and many other
artworks. I made La cascade for my husband. He wanted a little
waterfall with three ducks.
Actually
he was joking but I have nevertheless made it. Water and trees
represent for me life. To make such paintings makes me live. I
didn't use any model of photo to make this painting. La fille et
la fleur remembers my childhood. I was always in love with the
flowers. I've never stolen anything from my mother but I decorated
my class in school with her most beautiful flowers. I'm lucky that
I grew up in a farm with lots of animals, flowers and trees. |
