David BOWIE (2020) Painting by Perrine Poirier

Born in 1984 in Eure-et-Loir (28), I am a self-taught painter.

I spent most of my childhood and adolescence drawing and painting ( gouache) and I was also passionate about comics.

Around the age of 18, I discovered acrylic and deepened my passion by making very realistic paintings on canvas (flowers, landscapes...).

In 2006, I won 1st prize in a comic strip competition in Châteaudun, the town where I grew up.

I continue to learn with books, by copying the works of great Masters of painting, I practice, try my hand at watercolor...

Then, I left Eure-et-Loir in 2011 to settle in Lozère (48).

In 2012, I exhibited my paintings for the very first time at the Consular House in Mende (48) and receive very positive feedback from the public.

I also participate in the Jean Arsac Painting Competition in Puy-en-Velay (43) and I' get the "Prix Office du Tourisme" from my first participation in 2011, and the "Creativity Prize" in 2015.

I set up a space to paint in 2016 in my new home, and tested different painting techniques (abstract, fluid).

This space dedicated to painting #039;art also allows me to make demonstrations of drawings and paintings in videos, visible on my Youtube channel.

Then, I have a passion for making portraits from 2018 and exhibit again in Lozère (Filature des Calquières in Langogne)

Wishing to sell my paintings, I declared myself in April 2019 and I became a professional painter!

Despite the health situation, I manage to exhibit all my portraits (about thirty) in La Canourgue (48) from July 15 to September 4, 2020.

Since then, I have continued my work on various projects (portraits, various illustrations, interior decoration... ).
