Véronique Françaix

Nothing is more pleasant in an artist than freshness, and Véronique Françaix's painting first shows this quality. Véronique loves colors, she loves images, she loves city views, houses, roofs, monuments, cemeteries, trees, she loves characters, she even loves tigers.

It gives the impression of painting without asking questions and yet, as soon as we know what it started with, souvenir image, photography, and we measure its contribution, we understand that this freshness has nothing to see with ease, but everything with temperament: a certain way of simplifying perceptions, of shaking up the optics, of redistributing forms, of reviving our little world which really needs it.
