Art is only given if we forget it. You don't create, creation builds itself through you.

Savoyard artist, Pier-Marion is a lover of nature and wide open spaces. She discovered her vocation as a child by painting with gouache. With a degree in literature, she first worked as a designer in the printing industry. Shortly after an inspiring meeting with the painter Tardieu in Aix-les-Bains, she opened her first studio on the shores of Lake Bourget. She then experimented with several techniques before blossoming into oil painting. Today, Pier-Marion teaches her art in Savoie and exhibits regularly throughout France.

Pier-Marion's uncluttered works convey with great sensitivity the beauty and harmony of nature's great wilderness landscapes. Whether in her studio or in the open air, she uses oil paint and knives on canvas. By simplifying the lines and strokes in her compositions, the artist works above all on hues and light to draw out the very essence of her panoramas, their charm and energy. From an early age, she discovered and admired Gauguin, before later turning her attention to contemporary painters such as Dominique Dall'agnol and Carole Marine. In her paintings, Pier-Marion paints a delicate and enchanting portrait of life and the environment, before being an object of any kind.
