Anne-Catherine Favier

Facing the canvas, I put myself in a state of availability to release and let resonate what escapes me! The secrets of the invisible!

Body and mind together!

I am attentive to the unexpected, accidents…

My hands, my body are intermediaries between this research and what is created on the web!

Often I could observe that the web knew more than me!
The only certain element is on my palette! I know with what colors I need to express myself. They impose themselves on me! In fact, they are often the same from one table to the next. They are still few and far between. I have an extreme pleasure to work these oils, these pigments, I dose them and balance them differently to find infinite nuances!

I work on a canvas for many months… It is revealed little by little, making proposals to me, sometimes I follow them, other times I take another direction.

Despite this constant nourishment due to the many passages, I try to go more and more towards transparency, and that the light comes from the canvas itself!

One of the points in common with my other profession as an actress is that once the curtain has been drawn, the painting has been signed, the show moves into the universe and the feelings of the spectators. They create their own show!

Different path for everyone!

What could be more moving for me than one of my paintings meets other looks, other sensibilities than mine!

At that moment, the canvas escapes me and has its own life!
