Elizabeth Vigée Le Brun a connu une carrière exceptionnelle dans la peinture en France au XVIIIe siècle, devenant la peintre officielle de Marie-Antoinette à l'âge de 23 ans. Audacieuse, elle osa réaliser un portrait de la reine dans une robe d'une grande simplicité, défiant ainsi les conventions de l'époque. Elle a su fuir à temps la Terreur. Elle incarne le talent, l'élégance, la beauté et l'audace. S'inspirant de son autoportrait, cette peinture s'efforce de capturer la joie et la vitalité du modèle avec une vibrance renforcée et des couleurs plus vives. En rendant hommage à l'héritage de Vigée Le Brun, nous cherchons à évoquer le charme intemporel et l'esprit de son œuvre.

Elizabeth Vigée Le Brun forged an extraordinary career in 18th century France, ascending to the position of Marie Antoinette's official portraitist at the tender age of 23. Renowned for her boldness, she defied convention by portraying the queen in a remarkably simple dress, showcasing her artistic daring. Evading the tumultuous era of the French Revolution, Vigée Le Brun remains a symbol of talent, elegance, beauty, and audacity. Drawing inspiration from her self-portrait, this painting endeavors to capture the model's joy and vitality with enhanced vibrancy and more vivid colors. In paying homage to Vigée Le Brun's legacy, we seek to evoke the timeless charm and spirit of her work.

Presentation

As an artist, my creative journey has been shaped by a wide range of experiences and cultural influences. From my travels across different countries to my exploration of various artistic styles, my work reflects the rich tapestry of life around us.


Drawing inspiration from impressionism, pop art, street art and primitive arts, I strive to capture the essence of human dynamism and the beauty of our world. The time I spent drawing live models in Paris instilled in me a passion for depicting the strength and vitality of the human form, while my experiences in India kindled my love for vibrant colors and strong contrasts.


As my style evolves from figurative to abstract, I seek to distill the essence of my subjects, inviting viewers to explore their own perceptions and interpretations.


My art is a celebration of creativity and diversity, a reflection of the universal language that unites us all. Through my work, I hope to inspire others to see the beauty in the world and embrace the power of imagination.
