Celine's Happy STYLE
It has a figurative and realistic style. The technique of the ballpoint pen brings modernity with this so particular blue. She likes the idea of creating with very little material. But she often uses mixed media to add color and texture.
The search for emotion and resemblance in the drawing remains his priority, with strong contrasts.
Why we LOVE Celine
We were looking for an artist who has mastered the technique of drawing with a ballpoint pen for a long time, because we are fans of this technique which combines both the classicism of drawing and the modernity of the ballpoint pen.
We are bluffed by the resemblance of Céline’s drawings and by the emotion that springs from them. Her addition of colors for the clothes or the background allows to obtain very beautiful compositions.
