Dany D'Alife

Little girl and daughter of painters, drawing and painting are obvious since I know how to hold a pencil. I thank them for bringing that passion to me.

For more than two years, free of professional constraints, I live, breathe, think painting. My days are full of colors but also of chess, of failed canvases. No matter, it is in failure that we learn. I hung my paintings in various exhibitions in Seine-Maritime and Yonne. Still lifes have been transformed into «living» natures, the animal has now taken the whole place, in my workshop.

When I paint an animal, I start with the eyes, I look for it.

It comes to life under my brush and in this incredible face face, he in his imperfect fragility and I in Ithe years that I have worked so hard to make it happen, we are one and the same.

When the day of separation arrives, when I see him go elsewhere, I fill with colors, the void that he leaves.
