La main sur le visage (2017) Painting by Nadine Nacinovic

I was born in Antibes and I draw strength and vitality from my Mediterranean roots.

I transpose this positive energy onto my canvases with ample and spontaneous gestures, shaping thanks to a palette of very nuanced colors sincere and lively portraits, bucolic, dynamic landscapes, inviting to reverie.
I have a strong attraction for nature which nourishes me and enchants me with its life force.
In my painting, I strive to capture its always so fluid movement, its colorful harmonies and its changing matter. Cagnes-sur-Mer.

I confirm my taste for painting by exploring the museums of the Côte d'Azur, in particular the Maeght foundation, which allows me to refine my tastes and my pictorial desires. I have the chance to already exhibit my paintings in various places such as St Paul de Vence or the castle of Cagnes-sur-Mer.

Driven by a need to discover more and more artists, sensitivities, forms of pictorial expression, I moved my brushes to Lyon to follow a formation of the fine arts there. At the Beaux Arts I met two painter friends, we created an association, "Les Abeilles" (in homage to the hive of Montparnasse), which allowed us for nearly 10 years to shell between Lyon, Paris and the Drôme a little of our colorful energy, with our desire to share our artistic fervor. Art is our daily life, it must penetrate into that of others, meet them: we become one with our paint to create living pictures on very large canvases, mount artistic performances, create monumental sculptures. Wherever possible, and especially where we least expect it, we introduce shapes and colors into the urban space to sow a little magic and create conviviality.

In 1998 installation in the Drôme which allows me to work in harmony with the nature that I find at the door of my workshop, installed in an old sheepfold. It is in this new workshop" at the Ferme des Dames" a former convent that I find new inspiration. My place of life is my place of inspiration, my color palette is redefined, rediscovering the emotions of outdoor painting. Until then, I was more of a painter of browns, greens, chestnuts, so I turned to a shades of warmer shades, some would say tawny.
I have fitted out my studio in my feminine and harmonious image. Conviviality, calm and voluptuousness.
