Stéphanie Menard
Self-taught painter since 2007, I work by instinct and improvisation.
Very quickly, I feel more comfortable with acrylic, lying on canvas with a knife.
I search through my series Evaporation, Contrast or Océalie a variety of effects more or less important thanks to textures of different composition.
My paintings often use reliefs, nicks, furrows in the material that create both plays of light and colors.
These effects open me a door on a new work, a new series "Monochrome" strongly inspired by the famous painter Pierre Soulages. My favorite color is the black for its powerful and mysterious side but also the more poetic white in my eyes, then the red, intense and sensual.
In search of constant evolution, I let myself be guided by new techniques that I explore continuously.
Thus, I go through a long time with my KanChai series, in search of minimalism, balance or lightness.
Chinese ink on paper fascinates me.
Other series with mixed techniques appear over time "Cabaret" my faces of women or my characters in the Klimt for example, but also Aforetime whose paintings of this series seem to have been aged by time.
Abstraction or figuration (more recently), acrylic or digital painting (new technique), each work allows me to freely express my impressions and wanderings of my soul.
In 2011: opening of my online store, creation of my blog.
My presence on social networks brings me regular requests for creations.
May 2014: Exhibition and Opening at the Angel Art Gallery, rue Raspail in Carpentras throughout the month of May. Artistic performance (creation of a four-handed canvas with Serge Gisquière, painter exhibiting his paintings at the same time in the gallery).

Un petit texte me concernant en anglais cette fois de Nicolas Bermanne
STÉPHANIE MENARD (from France) is a self taught artist living in Provence, near the Riviera, whose need and passion for creation arose during her second pregnancy. Her sensibility, positivity, love for human nature translate into her work from her thirst for life to a never ending desire to share the beauty of emotions. She chose to express herself through abstract art, and love to add shapes, volumes and grooves to her creations using various tools such as spatulas and palette knives, cutting through matter and colours. Entering one of her paintings is like walking through the looking-glass, using one reflection of light on one side to create an effect, and its opposite while glancing from another angle.
