This painting is basically the answer to a previous large painting (also 60''x48'') entitled ''Narcissus''(Narcisse)

One can notice Elodie.M Richard ' s predilection to work with primary colors and characteristic white outlines.
There is also a dialogue between solid colors and areas where the light seems to come from the back of the canvas, as it would with a stained glass work.
The woman character is recurrent in her work and appears in other paintings she did, such as ''Intertwined'' or ''The Inner Window''.
Narcissus flowers emerge from her body as she experiences her own metamorphosis.
There is a strong reference to the myth of Narcissus.
This painting fits in a larger body of work which focuses on what makes an identity, as well as what makes Elodie.M Richard 's signature as an artist.

Elodie M. Richard was born in France but with a complex heritage including Polish and Russian. Due to her father’s career in the Army her family had to regularly move and adapt to new locations in France and abroad. Her life path as a child and adult is made of travels and regular changes of geographical locations, constantly balancing between feeling of loss, challenges and new life starts. 

Unlike a superficial society that gets lost in ultra consumption, Elodie creates a refined, symbolic and meditative world around the broad notion of identity. She takes her inspirations from personal experiences but also current events and her connection to nature.
The artist currently lives in Central Florida with her husband (artist himself) and their small flock of 5 rescued pigeons.

This page shows an inventory of her work as a painter and illustrator since 2016 up to this current year. 

Some of her artworks appear as sold, if interested in an art piece, please private message Elodie.
