"Inhaling beauty is to recapture the wellbeing of the world and even the equilibrium of the universe."
My Motto
I grew up between city and countryside, between a place intoxicating to the senses and the daydreaming in which I indulged in my room in Paris.
At a very young age I became aware of my creative nature and my love of two-dimensional, colorful compositions. I felt close to the Romanesque frescoes, Romanesque manuscripts and Medieval stained glass. But it was only during my art studies that my teacher legitimized my taste for these kinds of compositions and types of artwork.
At the age of thirty I turned my attention to my three children whom I had decided to homeschool. The care dedicated to my “three living statues”, as I liked to call them, was heightened by family trips to various parts of the world. Those twenty years were intense, and they made me stronger as an artist and as a mother.
At age 50, I decided to focus my attention on the visual arts, since I realized that this discipline better corresponded to my personal and professional development. This path plunged me into the raw materials of the art form, and it is through these most natural resources that I was able to create the subtle brightness of the pigments I love.
