I am a French self-taught artist, and these past twenty years I have made Norway my home. Moving to the Lofoten islands was the greatest present I ever made to myself and the Arctic landscapes are indeed a true treat for any artist’s eyes. I live with my British soulmate, my sweet Papillon girls, Lucy and Pixie and the spirit of my border collie, Loki. My creativity is a tribute to the eyes that blink in the heart of every smallest thing, the flowing dreams whose pulse tries to reach to us in our most meditative state.
Now… I’ve been thinking about the handmade book I wanted to make, drafting ideas for hours and I finally had my Eureka moment. I’m not going to make a handmade book, not enough space on my altar and the format is just too small, it would be too frustrating. Dioramas too would be just too big to fit in these
I finally finished the big painting I had started… in December! A huge amount of work went into it. I love panoramas. I’m tempted to add more panels, extend and explore this snowy town. Maybe I will. But not now. Four months spent on one single painting is just a tad too long! The music is Gracelight by Nick Hollywell
I got the chance to see some Northern Lights recently but it’s been mostly cloudy alas We also got a lot of snow in February, it was fantastic! The icicles sparkling in the moonlight. A great place to read on my tablet in my comfy chair with a hot water bottle and a cup of tea. https://vimeo.com/688296076 The way Home…
When I was a child, I got a wonderful teacher. She was very creative and artistic and certainly had a big influence on me. She wanted me as the queen of the flowers in the school show which was an adaptation of Ida and the flowers by Hans Christian Andersen. Perhaps this is why John Anster Fitzgerald is my favourite
