Painting Sur la nappe à carreaux by Penaud Raphaëlle | Painting Naive art Mixed still-life

Raphaëlle has always dreamt of being an artist: singer, dancer, actress, or photographer. Eager to express herself, she naturally turned towards studying the arts and attended the School of Fine Arts. She completed her training by studying visual communication and graphic design. In the early 2000's, she met a group of young artists in Nantes who led her to exhibit her work. Thus began Raphaëlle Penaud's unbridled passion for portraits of small and large animals. Raphaëlle's childish and funny spirit draws us into a bucolic poetry that gives the audience a child's smile.
