Nathalie Dervaux Pouliquen

“Life sometimes offers us winding paths and I am the perfect illustration of this.

Born on June 29, 1966 in Valenciennes, I spent 25 years in the hotel and catering industry and devoted 10 years to private property care and assistance to the elderly.

However, it took a personal tragedy for my true passion to emerge.

Following the death of my father, I decided to give my life a new direction and chose to follow my long-buried dream: painting.

Passionate, for me age has no importance and as I say philosophically "better late than never". My artistic adventure, although late, is living proof that it is never too late to pursue your dreams.

Each brushstroke becomes an open window into my soul and the reality that surrounds it. I primarily favor oil as a means of expression. Every day I learn more on my own, perfecting my techniques and refining my style. I sincerely hope that my works will touch the heart and soul of what it is. Contemplating my story is a powerful reminder that passion and perseverance can open new doors even when you think time is running out." Natali
