One Lajeunesse by Louise Lajeunesse

I started painting and realized I had a talent for artistic creation when I made contact with my inner calm. During my studies in Bachelor of art, I discovered my true calling: communication through visual arts. I have since worked tirelessly in my studio alone. My temperament dictated my hand until my style was revealed, until I found a technique that is my own, a technique that reflects what my inner voice-channel wants to express. Inspired by pointillism and divisionism, this technique, which I named One by One, uses brush strokes, without slipping.

Through my paintings, I wish to convey my values, my humanity in a paradoxical world where intermingle ugliness and beauty, war and peace, night and light. I chose the beauty, peace and light. I am focused on simple compositions and sometimes I use black backgrounds, to better highlight the light of my characters and to locate the place of humans in the universe, to show that only their inner eyes can witness the beauty. Light inevitably triumphs darkness and all have access to it if they wish.

My slogan is “Do to be or be to do? “. This is the essence of my spiritual quest, my artistic development. This question inspired me to create Duality.
