Description

This captivating work depicts a sea turtle gracefully swimming in a brilliant blue ocean. The artist captures the majesty of this animal with remarkable precision, with every scale and detail of its shell exquisitely rendered. The color palette, dominated by shades of blue and green, evokes a serene and calming atmosphere, while the subtle play of light on the water accentuates the realism of the scene. The turtle appears to emerge from the painting, animated by a fluid and natural movement. The light, expressive touches of white in the clouds evoke a sunny day, contrasting beautifully with the depth of the ocean. This painting is not only a celebration of marine beauty, but also a tribute to underwater life and its fragility.

Aurelie Cholley, First Swim
France

Presentation

At the age of 16, after winning first prize in France, she received the gold medal in Kuusamo, Finland, at the European Art Competition (Eurojeune) on the theme of "My Planet."

After higher education at the Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg, the Beaux Arts in Épinal, Angers and Mulhouse, she obtained the National Higher Diploma in Plastic Expression with a special mention in painting in 2005 and settled in Chamesol in the Haut Doubs, a region bordering Switzerland and Germany.

Due to this cross-border geographical proximity, she exhibits in France (Galerie Stilmutania in Strasbourg, Besançon, Ornans, Mulhouse), in Switzerland (Biel/Bienne, Chevenez, Goumois) and in Germany (French Institute in Fribourg, Höfingen, Ötigheim and Leonberg for the Lange Kunst Nacht since 2008).

His latest series of paintings.

"Female who laughs," a tribute to Benjamin Rabier and his famous red cow, is universal propaganda for joy, sprinkled with feminism.

The very graphic visual impact of Pop Art style, saturated with bright colors is reinforced by the iconic mise en abyme on the earring.

An act of rebellion against the prevailing depression, this series of nine paintings can be seen as a plea for the right to happiness for all creatures.
