Collection: FRANCOISE AUGUSTINE
In the shadow of an ordered life, Françoise Augustine nurtured a profound artistic sensibility. An accountant by day, a passionate painter in secret, she cultivated a quiet creativity for a long time, until a simple act—publishing her first canvases online during the pandemic—brought her true path to fruition. The enthusiastic public response revealed her world: a vibrant, luminous, and openly emotional universe. Today, Françoise Augustine dedicates her energy to painting where color is a language, a force that soothes, uplifts, and reveals. For her new series, she explores floral expression in particular, finding in it an ideal territory to unite the power of symbolism and the gentleness of life.
Her flowers, intense and vibrant, are adorned with luminous yellows, deep reds, and striking contrasts. Each petal, each shade, seems to breathe. For her, the flower is not a simple motif: it is a sentient being, a mirror of emotions, a fragment of light capable of illuminating even the darkest corners.
Her softened realism, combined with a warm and generous palette, offers compositions where the texture speaks as much as the subject. Everything is conceived beforehand: the colors, the light, the emotional resonance. The red background, which has become her signature, creates a warm setting that intensifies the presence of the flower and lends it an almost spiritual depth. In this approach, Françoise Augustine unveils a painting that heals as much as it amazes. Her floral creations are bursts of tenderness, celebrations of beauty, havens of color that invite us to slow down, to look, to feel. With sincerity and intensity, she offers the world a vision where beauty soothes—even in the shadows.
