About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

BIOGRAPHY :
Dominique lives and works in Niort.
After 4 years at the Beaux Arts (1990), she participated in several exhibitions in the Poitou-Charentes region and led plastic art workshops. From the start, the transmission gives a particular meaning to his job by sharing his cultural practice.
From 2001 until 2018, she worked in the world of performing arts, creating stage sets, puppets, accessories and installations. His work is enriched at the crossroads of other mainly theatrical practices. She is trained in the manipulation of puppets as well as in the theater of gesture. In 2019, she devoted herself again mainly to painting and drawing.

ARTISTIC APPROACH :
Art is a way for her to meet the world, to celebrate its beauty.
In a world where humanity is regularly flouted, she offers deeply human portraits, a mirror of our emotions and where we encounter the gaze of the other. She is in search of the inner impression, of this presence which she perceives and which touches her sensitivity. Finally, there is a question of love...
Senegalese culture is one of his sources of inspiration.
The drawing and the place of color are essential elements of her work, she seeks the vibrations, the colored frictions which excite the retina.
She uses mixed techniques: pastels, acrylic, watercolor, ballpoint pen, collage... including the crossing, the meeting corresponding more precisely to her expression and her research.
