Coral Garden (2023) Painting by Lonidia

I spent my childhood in the countryside, surrounded by plants, flowers and animals. Creative at heart, infused with drawing and painting, I wanted to make it my main activity. My family did not have the financial means to support me in my artistic development, I chose graphic design to combine my passion and a stable financial situation. I trained at the European school of advertising graphics in Angers (Maine et Loire) then I worked as an artistic director in prestigious design agencies in Paris for 8 years. I decided 7 years ago to set out on my own, gradually reconnecting with my first artistic loves, devoting more and more time to it in recent years. At the same time, my trips to discover other landscapes, especially underwater, revealed me to myself. The emotions these environments give me are visceral. The shapes and colors of nature transcend me, I need to pay homage to them in my practice. I feel intrinsically connected to this nature, to living organisms, on land and under the sea. They fascinate me, heal me, make me want to pay homage to them. I wish to dedicate myself fully to serving causes that are dear to me. The preservation of oceans, plants, forests, animals and flowers have obviously become my favorite subject.
