OverviewText in French & English. In the tradition of icons and mandalas, Anne-Laure's visual prayers reach out with positive transformational power and inspire all who see them to feel more connected. Anne-Laure's paintings reflect deep faith. Their bright colours convey messages of hope, joy, peace, love, and communion with others. Sometimes her inspiration for a painting comes through words or quotes; sometimes it comes through strong events in her life. But however God provides her with the subject matter, the messages are universal. Painting for Anne-Laure is a dialogue, and her canvases are wonderful supports for and witnesses of a very strong experience of communion. Readers will feel a strong sense of the historic power of art and creativity to bring us closer to God and to our centre. With symbolic colours, shapes, compositions, textures, and contrasts, each painting has several possible meanings and connections. They serve as a powerful testament to the connection between spirituality and creativity. Text is in English and repeated in French.

Her studies in art and design have given her the opportunity to learn and explore many different materials in her own practice. She has worked as a stylist and designer in Strasbourg, Lyon, and Monaco. A special event in 2001 connected her talents with a new element. She discovered a complete joy during a spiritual retreat, making cross between her paintbrushes and colors and her deep faith, practicing prayer and creation at the same time. From that day, she has followed this specific way of processing-meditating and painting together. Committing her talents to different projects, she shares her inspiration as painter, graphic designer, exhibit organizer, and workshop teacher with a personal conviction and universal language. She continues to draw and paint almost every day, and has been shown through several solo and group exhibitions in France and in Texas. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
