Owl on Stump Drawing

SBBoursot is a multdisciplinary Anglo-French artist based in the Côte d'Or region of France. An emerging artist in terms of professional practice, her work is collected in the UK, US and across Europe. She has exhibited at the Pastel Society Annual Exhibition at The Mall Galleries in London and at the Salon de Dessin et Peinture à l’Eau at Le Grand Palais Emphémère in Paris. Her charcoal portraits were awarded the Prix Fusain at Art-Sciences-Lettres and in December 2023 she was a finalist of the Visual Artist Association Professional Artist Award and awarded “Highly Recommended Exhibitor”. Attracted to figurative subjects, she presents stories of being, interpreting them through an impressionist and expressive lens, allowing each piece to develop intuitively. Working in a variety of mediums, she likes materials she can touch and get messy with. Charcoal is a recurring favourite, that she manipulates both wet and dry, creating different textures, effects and sfumato, with the drama of the monochrome, while remaining soft and matt.
