Martine Gregoire

Biography

Painting is a true passion for me. I have always loved art, drawing, sculpture, painting, visiting museums....  and finding my brushes every day is a great joy.

Years of lessons, internships (with Casimir Ferrer, Isabelle Sarian...) and daily practice have allowed me to evolve, gain in technique but above all to define my favorite subjects, my palette and thus create my universe over the years.

My working themes are portraits, silhouettes of women, children of the world, who through their looks, their clothes, accessories, colors, will convey a story but also the flowers and seascapes. Each painting is a favorite and I love painting the hydrangeas and peonies in my garden as much as the pretty low tides in my region near La Rochelle.

I mainly paint in oil which allows me to work with shades and fades in soft, powdery colors.

I like each painting to have an atmosphere, a universe and to provide an emotion to the person who will look at it.

Visitors to my exhibitions often tell me that spending a moment looking at my paintings brought them a lot of well-being and emotion. For me it's the most beautiful compliment.
