NEW PAINTINGS - SCHOOLYEAR 2005/2006

For the first time in my painting group, I did something else than cats. That was quite a revolution to everybody.

I saw a photo montage combining a cat head and a pingouin body, so I choose it

I think I don't have to specify what the paintings represent ! All of them I did in Art School. Of course there were no cat models. There were Still Lives or models and to the big sorrow of my teachers I always added a cat. Finally they gave up and everybody started to call me "Mme Chat" which means Mrs. Cat (some people think that chat (english) suits me better). Since I really started I have only used pastel and acrylic.


And here is the link to all paintings I had published before :

    PRESENTATION








    This is me when I started a new picture.



    I have always loved to draw but I really started in 1990. Before I never had the time. So I went again to school ... but this time a school I loved !


    I stayed there for several years, learning a lot and having fun. Then I continued in courses organized by the city where I live.


    Once a week we are getting together, all leisure painters. We have a teacher who helps those who need help and in October we do an exposition of our works during the school year. If you are lucky you also sell your pictures.


    I mostly paint cats, but not real once, I just take their body forms compose and paint them in orange, red, blue etc.


    When I had been at art school, I added a cat to every imposed subject. So they all started to call me Madame Chat, which means Mrs. Cat in french. I have four cats, they are all my models ! It's amazing the way a cat moves and changes position even when you think she is deeply asleep.
