le-bouquet-de-lilas.jpg Painting by Cécile Labossière

Born in Bordeaux on January 6..., magical day of the Three Wise Men from the East and bearers of the 3 gifts, gold, myrrh and incense, guided by the light of a star...
...of a mother from Bordeaux, a father from Martinique,
...one day in 1994 Cécile LaBossière started painting, quite naturally and spontaneously guided by her innate and irresistible attraction to painting.
... this is how, at the end of her professional career as a management assistant at the Bergonié Institute, the Bordeaux and South-West Cancer Center, she will never stop painting.

Her works are born from...writing, poetry, also from her roots with which she feels inseparable and towards which she has always been going to encounter through genealogy, from this love that she has for Nature who inhabits it, that it inhabits to which it belongs and of which it feels an element, certainly tiny but for all that, inseparable even...indispensable. Nothing exists by chance.
All of this awakens enthusiasm and inspiration in her, guides her hand to the point of making her lose this very relative notion of time passing. This time which, of the person only degrades his visible aspect, his vehicle, allowing his soul to evolve, to flourish, to slip away, to aspire towards other horizons, other universes, other Suns...Never jostle anything or rush, everything only happens in its time...

Immersed in nature or in her small workshop, alone in front of her easel, she is always accompanied by background music and imbued with memories... of the last ray of sunlight filtered through the foliage, of the smell emanating from the warm earth beneath the downpour, the scarf of mist finishing to fray, the lizard sneaking under some old stones warmed for a long time in the sun...

She most often works with oil, of which she likes the content and natural richness of the gloss, more rarely with acrylic, with a brush, with a knife or even with her fingers,... on any support within her reach, cardboard recycled or canvas, wood, but she likes the look and feel of linen canvas with which she has a special relationship.
