Artist Statement
Creating was always an essential part of my life. I worked as a fashion designer and own my own store for many years. I have experimented in different fields of art. These various disciplines fostered my passion for painting and the rest is history. I have been active in the world of arts for more than 20 years with countless exhibitions and several gallery representations.
My style has changed many times over the years. For me, art is experimenting and discovering original techniques that I teach.
No parts of my first incursions into the realm of the abstract totally escape a sequence of progression, as one style makes inroads into another. Lately I have been experimenting with two other mediums to create the most amazing artworks yet: Alcohol Inks and Pébéo Stained-glass paints.
Throughout these developments, these two techniques, must be credited as the catalyst for the most astonishing change in my style.
The Ink Alcohol Technique is very peculiar to work with. Colors offered in the inks are subtle, vibrant and varied. The success of the creation is in my intuitive response to the dynamic flowing movement, a channel to amazement and adventure.
The Stained-glass Technique can be worked in an abstract way and a figurative way. Both gave amazing results.
These paints with opalescent, opaque or pearlescent colors distend and intertwine to give life to original combinations, abstract textures and designs. And when the paints begin to play between opacity and opalescence my artwork becomes a gem of emotions. The colors reveal a stunning honeycomb and textured effect within minutes after application. . I used them liberally with my abstract composition or in a figurative style called “Cloisonné” (colors contained in a defined design).
The figurative is part cloisonné and varied pigments interacting together in a flow of colors and textures. The Abstract becomes either expressionist or totally guided by my artistic intuitive process.
I teach these two new Techniques at different times during the year in group of 8 people maximum. Information will be on my website when they are available.
