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).

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.

Catherine Maddens, abstract painter, translates vital energy into a symphony of vibrant colors.

Her passion for Painting transcends the borders of the invisible, and transforms each canvas into a unique cathartic experience.

Originally from Normandy, Catherine Maddens was immersed in the artistic universe from an early age thanks to a father, an amateur painter and sculptor. In an environment imbued with the colors of the Impressionist masters, she quickly developed a deep love for art, a feeling reinforced by the support of her art teacher in college.

Although life led her to study clinical psychology and work as a graphic designer, she never gave up her passion for painting. She continued to paint when she could and nurture her dream of being an artist in her own right. It was this determination that finally led him to realize his long-held dream: to become a professional painter.

Inspired by the humanities, she explores the nuances of human consciousness and spiritual energy. She is also interested in certain concepts of quantum physics and healing processes. These themes materialize in his abstract painting to enter into deep emotional and existential resonance with observer.

Employing a diverse range of techniques and materials, Catherine Maddens creates unique abstract paintings. Whether it's acrylic, gouache, oil sticks, pastels, oil paint, aerosols or even diverted everyday tools, everything is used with the aim of creating and experimenting.

In the world of contemporary abstract art, she stands out for her personal, sensitive and subtle approach to abstract painting. She explores creative processes and uses her painting as a way to celebrate Life and the grandeur of the Universe.

Based in Paris, she has been leading a professional artistic career since 2013.
