Nalou and her Art

It is often said that success depends on the alignment of the stars, that moving on is easier when our ideas are clear, when our mind is free of fear…

Having spent her childhood with a paintbrush in her hand, Nalou naturally returned to art after finishing her career as a Life Coach and Personal Trainer. Self-taught, she has since never stopped exploring techniques and tools that would allow her to put her emotions, her reactions, her moods onto the canvas.

Those who have had the opportunity to observe Nalou at work immediately saw that her gestures are decisive, the choice of colours is sure, there is no doubt that troubles her thoughts. The artist grabs a brush, spatula, or knife, elaborates her mixtures, and executes each movement with the same determination. When she paints, her inner worlds are aligned.

Questions, weaknesses, hesitations, do not have a place in this creative space. Nalou follows her instinct, and lets her being speak, as if spellbound. 

Abandoning the intellectuality of language, the canvas has become this confidant to which Nalou successively delivers her laughter, her anger, her rage, her hopes, her heart…

With a personality that is simultaneously simple, rich and complex, Nalou has created a universe of styles, textures and tones that is always unexpected from one period to another. The element of surprise is omnipresent. Viewed from a necessary perspective, the resulting work is organic and infinite, in line with the artist’s sensitivity.

With the same empathy that characterizes her, the artist allows herself to be coaxed by the softness of pastels or the finesse of a gradient, but equally unleashes the force of a fluorescent, blends the primaries or simply lets her paint brushes cry.

Her work is unique and multiple, touching like her creator who poured her heart into it and has no other aspiration than to reach the sensitivity of those to whom this emotion will speak.

“All I want is for my art to travel
and touch those who recognize themselves in my paintings,
in these colours that moved them.”
