Pour peindre cette toile, je suis partie d'une photo en noir et blanc des années 20 et je lui ai rendu sa couleur en choisissant le rouge pour le chapeau.
Le visage de cette jolie femme est en partie caché par le rebord du chapeau. On voit juste une partie du nez et la bouche maquillée de rouge. Le fond est noir teinté de rouge, pour mettre en valeur ce portrait.
Elle porte un collier de plusieurs rangs de perles argentées.
J'ai peint les contours du tableau de la même couleur que le fond, ce qui permet de ne pas l'encadrer.

I think I've always drawn, as far back as I can remember. I like to learn...and preferably alone, by observing, by studying the techniques used by others and above all by experimenting. And I'm passionate about color.
I used gouache in my childhood and adolescence. After ten years without touching a pencil and a brush for lack of time (I worked in a travel agency and I raised my children), I rediscovered art, first pastel, then watercolor which I practiced several hours a day for years. After progressing, I gave watercolor lessons for 8 years.
In the meantime, 27 years ago, I joined an oil painting workshop, then I "drift" towards acrylic a dozen years ago and I decided to devote myself to it because the oil gave me problems of drying and storage. I painted in acrylic on many supports: canvas, wood, papyrus... My favorite themes are: the 1920s, Egypt, the Carnival of Venice, Japan, the sea... I likes to work in color but also in black and white.
These themes can be found in my painting on glass, which I have been practicing for about 7 years. It's a technique that reminds me of the transparency of watercolor.
