Lau Blou | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography

Born on the banks of the Loire, Lau grew up in contact with the colours and softness of Anjou. At 16 she decided to study Fine Arts with the idea of becoming an interior designer, but finally, she turned to graphic design. Later, she moved to Cherbourg to join her husband and live her life as a mother. The desire to discover a completely different region led her to settle in the Alps where she worked for several years for nature magazines. Soon, the desire to handle brushes and work in contact with media led her to seek out the atmosphere of art workshops. It is at the Cité des Arts in Chambery that she found serenity through painting. Her research initially focused on the stones and the patina of ancient walls. At that time, her sources of inspiration were the old villages, the mountains and the light that surround them. Lau now devotes her life to painting and divides her time between sports and arts associations in Chambéry.
