Anouck Botteron  

Graduated from a business school, I worked for a long time in finance. Passionate about drawing and painting from an early age, I stopped my professional activity a few years ago, to devote myself fully to artistic creation. I trained in different workshops and have been exhibiting regularly since 2014.

I am particularly fond of knife painting for the impasto, the material and the vibrations it provides. I take the time to work on the background of the canvas, the material and then the colors to bring out the light. I scratch, I sculpt the paint until I see the layers overlap, the play of materials form and the colors mix. I like to play with the superposition of colors and materials to reveal transparency and light.

In my pictorial universe, I am constantly looking for a balance between movement, light, and color in order to obtain the right expression. Painting allows me to express myself fully, to communicate and to share my emotions.

The abstraction is present in the majority of my paintings. Moreover, it doesn't matter if my painting is related to something identifiable with reality, the important thing being for me, the emotion that can appear in my paintings.
