« Joyful Moments » This painting came from a simple feeling… those little moments in life that don’t seem big at the time, but somehow stay with you. I didn’t try to make the flowers perfect. I let them move freely, like memories that are a bit blurred but still full of emotion. The colors came naturally, one after the other, like feelings showing up without warning. When I look at it, it reminds me to slow down… to notice what’s already there. A quiet moment, a bit of light, something soft and real. Nothing grand. Just life, as it is. And somehow, that’s what makes it special. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 26'' x 26'' (66cm. x 66cm.)

« Different Life, Different Stories » Each person carries a story we cannot fully see. Some walk with family, some alone, some with memories, responsibilities, hope, or loss. I painted these figures as different lives moving through the same world, each shaped by unique experiences. Despite our different stories, we all search for connection, kindness, and moments of happiness. This painting is a reminder that every journey matters. https://youtu.be/wu_i5Atb61o Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 60'' x 30'' (152cm. x 76cm.)

« Bella and Her Butterfly » Have you ever noticed that after losing someone you love, little signs seem to appear? A butterfly crossing your path, a feather on the ground, or the same numbers showing up again and again. Moments that make you pause and wonder. I like to believe these are gentle reminders that love never truly disappears. Living is believing. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 22'' x 30'' (56cm. x 76cm.)

« Today is my Lucky Day » I made a simple but powerful decision… to be happy. Life is too short to carry heaviness. At some point, you realize that happiness is not something you wait for — it’s something you choose. This painting is about that moment of clarity. The flowers are free, vibrant, and full of movement — imperfect, spontaneous, and alive. Just like life when you allow yourself to enjoy it. A reminder to appreciate what is already here… because today is enough. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 22'' x 30'' (56cm. x 76cm.)

« Who’s Marylin » My paintings are born from imagination, lived experiences, and long hours of deep, quiet moments between the canvas and me. Color is my language. Each work carries fragments of life—sometimes mine, sometimes borrowed from stories I’ve witnessed or felt in others. I am the why behind every painting, even when the story remains open. Marilyn emerges from that space. Shaped by endurance and early responsibility, she learned to move forward while carrying invisible weight. The city became her structure and her refuge, but also her fatigue. As life slows, she feels drawn toward calm, nature, and the idea of peace. This painting captures a moment of transition rather than a conclusion. Marilyn is not defined—she is felt. Her story belongs as much to the viewer as it does to the canvas, leaving one quiet question lingering: Who’s Marilyn? Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 22'' x 30'' (56cm. x 76cm.)

« Modigliani Came For Tea » One day Modigliani dropped by. My ladies offered tea, good company, and a little attitude. This painting is what happened next. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 48'' x 36'' (122cm. x 91cm.)

« Surprise Party » I imagine them arriving from every corner of the world, just like so many of us are doing right now. Some travel far from home, some rebuild their lives, some simply try to find moments of light in difficult times. They chose their dresses for this evening as a small act of hope. Outside, the world feels uncertain, noisy, divided. But inside this room, there is warmth. Cultures mix, languages blend, differences become beautiful instead of threatening. They do not all know each other, yet they sit side by side, sharing a simple celebration. It reminds me that even now, in a complicated world, people still come together. One birthday, one evening, many stories — proof that connection is stronger than distance. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 58'' x 40'' (147cm. x 102cm.)

« My Friends » I didn’t plan this painting… it found its way back to me. This canvas had been sitting unfinished for a long time, waiting quietly. When I returned to it, something unexpected happened—these women began to appear. One by one, as if they had always been there, simply waiting for me to see them. I called it “My Friends” because that’s exactly what they became. I’ve always loved creating imaginary people—giving them life, presence, and personality. Each woman in this painting carries her own energy, her own story, her own quiet strength. They don’t belong to anyone, yet they feel familiar… like the kind of friends we all need. As we grow older, friendship takes on a deeper meaning. It’s not about quantity, but about connection, presence, and understanding. This painting is my way of surrounding myself with that feeling—of never being alone, of being held by a circle of strong, vibrant souls. Maybe they are friends. Maybe they are memories. Maybe they are parts of you. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 58'' x 36'' (147cm. x 91cm.)

« Joyful City » I painted this like a little escape… maybe even a rebellion. A place where people walk without fear. Where laughter replaces headlines. Where conversations are light, kind, and real. You see people everywhere—moving, connecting, living—not divided, not angry… just human. There’s no noise of politics here. No war breaking the silence. No judgment in the air. Just colors, movement, and that simple feeling of being happy to be alive. I didn’t paint perfection. I painted a wish. Because sometimes, I catch myself imagining this kind of world… and then I smile and think, oh! Wake up Marie… you’re dreaming. But maybe… a little dreaming is exactly what we need. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 58'' x 40'' (147cm. x 102cm.)

« The Women Who Grew Flowers » I imagine this woman at a moment in life when things finally slow down. The busy years are behind her, and she can finally enjoy the simple things she loves.Maybe she has always dreamed of a garden full of flowers. A peaceful place where colours grow everywhere and mornings begin quietly with a coffee in hand. In these two paintings, flowers seem to appear all around her, as if life itself is blooming again. Perhaps you are a garden lover.Perhaps you dream of a place like this. For me this diptych, each measuring 22 x 30 inches, is about that simple joy — when life finally gives us time to let our passions grow. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 44'' x 30'' (112cm. x 76cm.)

« La Villageoise en Ville » This painting is rooted in nostalgia, I was raised in a small village, surrounded by quiet streets and open skies. Now living in a big city, I often miss that gentle rhythm and simplicity. La villageoise en ville reflects that inner feeling — carrying the spirit of the village while standing in the movement of urban life. The woman in this portrait feels thoughtful and slightly distant, as if she belongs to two worlds at once. Behind her, the city unfolds in vibrant color, while her expression remains calm and grounded, holding onto memories of home. Painted intuitively in oil, with expressive brushwork and layered tones, the portrait captures both presence and emotion. The richness of the medium gives depth to her character and to the story she carries. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 24'' x 36'' (61cm. x 91cm.)

« La Dame aux Yeux Bruns » Who is this beautiful stranger? With her curly hair and big brown eyes, she draws attention without ever fully revealing herself. She is the mystery of the village. People talk, speculate, imagine stories—but no one truly knows her. And that is perfectly fine. Life is like that. No one really knows what we think or what we carry inside. And for me, that mystery is a form of freedom. Artwork details Dimensions (w x h): 24'' x 36'' (61cm. x 91cm.)
