Abstrait en gris, blanc et noir (2019) Painting by Fabienne Monestier

I am a professional painter. I live and work in Touraine.

I studied cinema and engraving at the Institut d'Arts Visuels d'Orléans, where I obtained the Higher National Diploma in Plastic Education in 1989, by presenting two short films. What I liked about cinema was drawing the storyboards ...

I work on different subjects, according to my inspirations: the nude, the landscape, the flowers and the forests (imaginary flowers or flowers of the memory, dream forests or fairy forests, it doesn't matter: the main thing is to express their poetry. ), I also sometimes walk around childhood, myths, legends ... I love to explore pictorial techniques: oil, acrylic, watercolor, drawing, collage, mixed media ...

I paint mainly from the imagination. Except when I indulge in hyperrealistic drawing with colored pencils, for which I need a model.

In recent years, I have had the pleasure of having buyers from all over the world who are interested in my works. My first overseas sale was to Australia. My works have the chance to travel everywhere!
