I decided to paint a beautiful woman body. One thing I like the most is painting the skin, all its nuances the shadows and the lights. For that I used oil painting because it's very sensual: I can feel it with my fingers when I touch it, and with the brushes as well. The difficulty was to make the viewer feel the sun on that body, the heat in the atmosphere. It took me a long time to paint it, almost 2 months. Because there are many layers of paint, and it's necessary to wait that a layer is dried before applying another one. The canvas is a high quality one, made with a very good wood. It was really a great pleasure for me to paint that woman who could be a hollywood actress.

Karine WAGENER is a French painter who was born in Paris, and works there in her studio. In her very close portraits with bright, immediate forms, the artist poses flat areas of vivid colors that collide, free, bold, sometimes biting or sour. Although she often starts from photographs, she recomposes the frame to its own way and metamorphoses them through the sensuality of the oil. She then moves away from the glossy paper and advertising posters to fit into the portrait painting tradition. From the bottom of the child's or woman's eyes staring the spectator, comes a mysterious innocence, a certain dreamlike, distant happiness, it's a hymn to feminity and glamour in all its forms, in all its nuances. Her work is held in private collections across the world. Karine WAGENER est un peintre français, née à Paris, elle y vit et y travaille dans son atelier. Dans ses portraits très proches aux formes vives et immédiates, l'artiste pose des aplats de couleurs vives qui s'entrechoquent, libres, audacieux, parfois mordants ou aigres. Bien qu'elle parte souvent de photographies, elle recompose le cadre à sa manière et les métamorphose par la sensualité de l'huile. elle s'éloigne alors du papier glacé et des affiches publicitaires pour s'inscrire dans la tradition du portrait. Du fond des yeux de l'enfant ou de la femme, fixant le spectateur, vient une innocence mystérieuse, un certain bonheur onirique et lointain. C'est un hymne à la féminité et au glamour sous toutes ses formes, dans toutes ses nuances. Son travail exposé dans de nombreuses collections privées à travers le monde.
