In Éclats de Verdure, she explores the architecture of a landscape through superimposed strata of oil, revealing subtle contrasts between opacity and transparency.

The composition is structured around horizontal blocks of green, ochre, beige and deep blue, applied with a palette knife and developed over multiple sessions. The surface displays traces of additions, erasures and reworked passages, allowing the painting to retain the memory of each layer.

Rather than depicting a literal view, the work builds a constructed landscape, shaped by rhythm, balance and material tension. The result is a refined equilibrium between abstraction and evocation — a painting that invites close observation to appreciate its depth and craftsmanship. See less
