Francoise Cariou

I was born in Brittany in1960.
I'm a self-taught painter who has been practicing my passion for several years. I took lessons at the school of BEAUX ARTS in ANGERS.

I'm a colorist and my artistic creations are enhanced by means oh photography.

My paintings are distincltly contemporary. Inspired by landscapes or real-lifes scenes, i use various supports forms to accentuate perspective and influence of light.
My work is marked by spontaneity and is guided by my emotions feelings.

I particularly likes the technique of using a knife, wich leaves me a lot of freedom of movement.

I participe in collective and individual exhibitions and exoposes permanently in a gallery "ATELIER 11" in CANNES COTE D AZUR.

My favorite painter is Monet and i like very much go to Giverny for the ambiance of house and gardens ...
