I had the great honour to have a full page of an article writtenabout my artist life in the delightful village of Cabris on the French Riviera.

Published this Summer 2025 just during my exhibition at the office of tourism in Cabris..

I am just back from putting on the walls the paintings and the actual beginning date is tomorrow

However I am thrilled to say that I have already sold the painting featuring the goats on the poster…I will go tomorrow to the exhibition venue to put a red dot before it starts!

I continue a series of paintings on horses to be able to present them as a collection. This is my fourth painting…

I love using black lines for movement and interest and adding a little bit of gold paint on the shoes and mane….just for fun.

Thanks to my wonderful friend keeping some napkins for me with beautiful designs I have plenty of choice for inspiration and colour schemes .The fish is a typical example of how you can tell a story with one element and the right choice of colours to create a particular atmosphere.

Soft colours in this watercolour painting have been used to convey serenity.The star on the forehead is the third eye.

Wonderful colours all around me with blossoming mimosa. Hence this inspired girl!

I continue using different sketchbooks using mainly wet media techniques to enjoy drawing animals of all kinds.

I just did a trip to my favourite art shop yesterday to invest in better quality paper 300gr watercolour type. I can’t wait to see the difference!

I have a creative routine thanks to my sketches which fill me with joy

Here is one of them .

Mummy bear and her cub. Mixed media crayons felt tip pens and gouache …

My angel doll was done with rhinestones and recycled  jewellery to make her shine. The face was created with a pebble covered with cloth and hand painted .The cloth itself is an old t-shirt. The feathers individualy cut in organza and sewned onto felt.A doily for the shawl.For the halo,  cloth put onto a circle of felt studded with glued rhinestones.I almost forgot..the hair was created with pipe cleaners…all that from my cupboards!

I had wished to make a shaman doll for a while and here he is. Silver birch is made of a wood stick covered with different material, jewellery beads feathers etc and the head was done with air dry clay  painted with acrylics .I made it all up with no reference and pattern..A creative process totally inspired by  intuition and a great selection of bits and bobs!
