About the art
Artist statement
My very first oil painting.
Painting made with Oil paint, non glazed, natural linen canvas.
Close up reproduction of La Comtesse de Chartre by Elisabeth Louis Vigée le Brun.
My intention was to give myself a try, observe, let go of any self pressure and judgment.
For the first time I present my work in oil painting.
Like many people, I started during the first lockdown.
I had never painted before. Even less surrealism. My work is not perfect, nor even really accomplished. Voluntarily, the bottom of her face testifies to the end of those weeks of lockdown, to the end of all that time we had dedicated to activities never explored.
I am often asked if it is true that this is my first experience with painting and oil ever. By publishing it here I wish to say to whoever will read these lines: whatever you wish to achieve, never underestimate yourself. Try, create, produce, observe, explore, discover.
This is also a tribute to my passion for fashion, history, fashion history and costumes.
Unique wall art, signed by the artist, provided with a certificate, ready to hang.
