Galerie Thuillier Paris [February Art Event]

Hello !

I’m going to be at Galerie Thuillier in the Marais, Paris for the vernissage on Tuesday 25 February (6-9pm)  🖼️✨

I can’t wait to share my passion for vibrant colors and the beauty of nature with this whimsical little oil painting from 2024.

I always love returning to Galerie Thuillier to catch up with old friends and connect with fellow art lovers and celebrate the magic of creativity!  I have not been there since July 2024 so looking forward to being back 😊

Feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions or just want to chat!

For more details see below.

Looking forward to seeing you there! 🌈🐴🦋

Best,
Jeannine

The Butterfly Effect 2, oil on canvas, 2024

Paris and athleticism, new paintings

See it at Galerie Thuillier Paris 3 (19 July - 1 August), vernissage Tuesday 23 July 6-9pm

🇫🇷  Un petit peu en retard dans la communication donc j'espère que cela ne vous dérange pas si, cette fois, vous mettez la partie en anglais en dessous dans Google Translate. MERCI beaucoup 😊

 [🇺🇸 I am WAY BEHIND in communication and REALLY sorry about that! I may be off horses following the March accident but been VERY busy in the art studio prepping for two July Art Shows (Galerie Thuillier Paris 3 from 19 July and Galerie 39 Barbizon-77 from 24 July).

Here are 3 new paintings celebrating the beauty of the Paris region with sporting elegance and a fun set of colors. 😊 🎨

The common thread across all 3 paintings? Colorful Beauty in Motion.

1. Versailles à Cheval (100x81cm)… An EPIC project like 5 paintings in one and covering my favorite subjects, horses in 3 disciplines and the vast skies, and Versailles with the Apollo Fountain water feature setting the scene.   As an equine enthusiast, horse owner and equestrian, I could not resist creating this painting being the first in the series. It also includes one of my favorite colors, Williamsburg Cerulean Blue 💙

2. « Rhythmic Flare » (55x46cm) Artistry meets athleticism. Nothing like springtime in Paris with a splash of Eiffel Tower cherry blossoms to put a kick into the air with rhythmic gymnastics. I have always enjoyed gymnastics. When I was young I wanted to be active on the Middle School Gymnastics team. Well that did NOT happen as parents would have NONE of it as they did not want me to break something that could stop my training on piano and violin. It was the same reason why I could not ride horses. Rhythmic gymnastics has that added element (like a ribbon). I love the fluid motion combining gymnastics that makes a pleasure to paint 💫

3. « Aquatic Flare » (55x46cm) … Powerful yet graceful precision flying through air to land with a VERY tiny splash in the water 💦. The synchronized diving with 2 divers is equally STUNNING ! 😀 🌟  It brings me back to the day when I was little learning to dive off the 1m springboard and 3meter platform diving boards with my "coach", my grandfather  ❤️

 Every canvas starts with an inspiration (an idea, a color, a style) but converting that imagery into something physically tangible is a leap. The ideas are there.  I wanted some detail but also have fun. The colors were playing around in my head .. but converting the ideas through color to canvas can be the challenge. Did I capture it or lose it in translation? Too much color? Too much or not enough detail? Also, EVERYBODY knows each of these Paris locations so it is key to get it right.

There was also the challenge of Versailles restoration, which refreshed the real life colors of the Apollo Fountain and the Royal Chapel.

For painting style … I wanted a bit more freedom with less precision and more splashes of color to express a feeling : splendor of horses at Versailles, the playful movement of the gymnast through the ribbon to the Eiffel Tower, and the arc of a diver soaring over the Parisian landscape of the Pont Alexander III connecting Rive Gauche/ Rive Droite of the Seine with the backdrop of the elegant Grand Palais.
