We love our beautiful Thérèse Boisclair painting, “Our Secret Place” which struck me immediately when I saw her collection online. It is an honor to behold this expressive, evocative piece every day in person & thank you to Thérèse for creating such deeply moving art.
These paintings are really beautiful, these are just the kind of paintings I connect to and love. Well done.
To Therese: This is so lovely…. I have used tissue in places but your overall consistency of under-covering and colors are bold. Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Beautiful work. Your use of color and texture is magical. Very moving art.
Thank you Diane for your comments. It is greatly appreciated.
A message to Therese: Your work is mesmerizing. I am an oil painter, expressive style yet representational. I currently have a painting in the (Manhattan Arts International) New Beginnings Exhibit. Continually loosening my strokes, I strive to understand abstraction in art. Thank you for sharing a little about your process but mostly, sharing your beautiful work.
