I love telling stories with my art. I love painting, clay and teaching.

Cette exposition regroupe cinq artistes qui ont en commun un regard sur les gens et les lieux où ils vivent. Bien que différent, leur regard demeure empreint de tendresse, d’humanisme, et il ne porte pas de jugement. 
« Ces gens, ce sont «nous», nous jeunes, vieillards, citoyen·nes actif·ves ou non, nous les humains qui vivons, travaillons en proie à l’ennui, à l’angoisse, à la disparition.

This piece was inspired by my love of flowers and especially the hollyhocks that grew near where I lived when I was a child. #ceramicandmixedmedia @cynvanfrank

Leda, In this new clay sculpture Leda is enveloped by the swan’s expansive wings, which curve around her in a tender and protective embrace. Her form emerges softly from the clay, framed by the delicate arc of feathers. Exuding calm, Leda’s presence is secure and self-possessed. #narrativeart #clayfigure #leda @cynvanfrank
