About the Artist

Hello, my name is Sandrine, I’m French. I have a background in “Town and Country Planning / Urban Studies”, but I have worked very little. We left France in 1992 and have lived in different countries: Madagascar, Bamako (Mali), Conakry (Guinea), Dubai, Zurich and now Singapore.

How did you get started in creating art and how does it enrich your life?

Before we left France, I had already started to paint and write (for me these two activities are closely related), but I took advantage of the expatriation and free time that was offered to immerse myself more in creativity. As an obviousness and a necessity… I did a bit of theater, a bit of photography but still painting and writing came back. Two of my novels even been published! Regarding painting, even if I had ideas, I lacked technique.

Please share on your learning experience and what you like about My Art Space

At My Art Space, I found several things. The feeling of being legitimate as an artist and belonging to a group. An emulation, No judgment on what we paint, just encouragement. And mostly the technique that I would not have been able to find alone. I found kind of « my artistic home »

What's your favourite artwork?

I don’t have a favorite artist or favorite painting. For a painting to please me, you just have to answer « yes » to these questions:

Did the artist have fun painting (or any other feeling but certainly not boredom)?

Would I like to have this painting at home and watch it every day?

Will I be proud to have made this painting?

In this case, we can say that the Van Gogh, the series of Nymphéas from Monet, Jackson Pollock or some Soulages I like (among many other artists).

I do not really like paintings that copy/stick to reality, even if I admire the technique of the painter, I prefer in this case a photo (the photo is also a work of art).

What are you trying to communicate with your art?

Hard to say as I paint instinctively and “in the moment”, which is why it’s hard for me to stay on a painting for many weeks – too much change in my mood.
