Claudine Georget

Claudine Georget Portrait

Claudine Georget, visual artist by training, produces contemporary figurative paintings which are narrative, decorative, and strongly coloured, focussing on people in intimate scenes.
Her themes are mainly cafes, bars and their blues musicians, parties, dance, circus and the world of entertainment, sports and travels, but also still lives and fabric designs.
The design, composition, framing, and the use of colour are all part of this new style of figurative painting.
Her studio is situated in a hilltop hamlet in south west France, between Quercy and Rouergue, overlooking the valley of the River Lot. The calm and isolation of this place have strongly influenced the development of her creations.
She uses very often mixed techniques, combining acrylics with pastels, oils and collage on various bases including paper, card, wood panels and canvas.
