de LAPRESLE - Les nénuphars en filigrane

I am a painter. I learned the oil painting technique at the Beaux-Arts Workshops of the City of Paris with exceptional professors such as Didier Picketty,André BOUZEReAu,François BARD.
I worked on the nude figure and still lifes.

Then gradually, I became interested in landscapes.
In the first instance, I worked on the motif and then from photos.
The theme of water lilies and the garden of Giverny is a source of inspiration.
I paint in my studio in La Défense on large-format canvases.
It is the sensation before the water lilies floating on the water that I bring to light. The rhythms of the flowers and the foliage are essential.
I use pigments to represent the fluidity of the blue water on the water lilies whose colors bring colorful notes to the whole.
