SHY Painting

From my young age, I was attracted to art in all its forms: drawing, writing, theatre, photography, and pottery. I explored my skills until another path lead me naturally elsewhere. Throughout the years, my artistic side slumbered, however, I have never given up the dream of returning to Art. ​ Happy co-owner manager of a beautiful high-end cabinetry company, for more than 27 years, including the last 12 years in the city of Naples in Florida, USA, until we sale this company in 2014.  ​ It was in 2012 that I finally decided to seriously listen to that little voice in me that encouraged me to reconnect with the deep desire to experiment with painting on canvas. From my first painting class, with the very talented Artist and teacher Arturo Samaniego, in Naples, Florida, it was a wonderful and intense revelation. Wow! What a beautiful gift I offered myself! Shortly the autodidact in me took its full place.   Each of my creation is a love story. Indeed, each of my works speaks to me of love, passion and emotion. The subjects I choose challenge me and inevitably lead me to this most peaceful place of my being. ​ I cannot now imagine my life without this beautiful art.   It’s never too late!   Helene Daneau
