Painting You smile by Teoli Chevieux Carine | Painting Acrylic

At the age of 8, Carine receives a box of oil paint for Christmas... By mistake. She will spend hours playing with this unexpected treasure, with clumsiness and jubilation. Her work will always be marked by this wonder, and she compares her research as a self-taught artist to the discoveries of the first men whose life fascinates her. Her fierce works, rich in pigments and textures, are like a contemporary echo of these cave paintings. As her work matures, she moves further and further away from the reassuring but restrictive limits of figuration, and devotes herself to the abstract with passion.Today, she plans to use her knowledge and sensitivity to help others by studying art therapy.
