Françoise Nielly
(Marsella, Francia / Marseille, France)
Françoise Nielly es una artista francesa nacida en Marsella que se crió entre Cannes y Saint-Tropez, y que tras explorar diferentes vertientes en la representación de la imagen (ilustración, fotografía, ordenador), se ha decantado por la pintura.
En sus obras el color es determinante; invariablemente pinta rostros de gran fuerza expresiva, muchas veces con tintes étnicos (a veces personalidades como Obama), utilizando la espátula y los contrastes potentes. Nielly ha exhibido sus obras en Canada, Alemania, E.E.U.U. y por supuesto en Francia. En su sitio web hay infinidad de trabajos y mucha información disponible.

Francoise Neilly’s remarkable paintings are something to behold. Her brilliant detail and ability to interpret lighting and shadows is second to none.
Francoise Nielly was born in Marsielle, brought up Cannes and Saint Tropez and now lives in Paris near Montmatre. She gets her sense of space and construction from her father who was an architect. As listed in her biography, Nielly is a passionate woman who loves life, wide open spaces, sushi, blue lagoons, humor, the internet, books, Paris, NYC, and Vancouver.
Whether she paints a portrait or the human body her paintings are always taking a risk. Her artwork is sexual, her colours free, surprising, bold and even explosive.
Her website biography includes a video that reveals how she makes her pieces. Her 20 years of artistic abilities and experience is on full display. To see more of her stunning artwork visit Francoise Nielly. Text from here.

Over time, many of her paintings have taken on an allegorical quality in which an abstract or surreal setting presents the individual as an archetypal character seen on his or her own internal stage. For these multi-dimensional works, she incorporates diverse stylistic elements along with gilding, stained glass, and mosaic. Text from artist's website.
