Let yourself be seduced by the gentleness of this portrait of a young Brazilian woman entitled Erika 2. This contemporary painting inspired by pointillism , created by the artist Luc Fortier, is perfectly suited to a space where you want to add a human presence and a touch of bright colors.


Artist's interpretation


This canvas, a modern pointillist interpretation of a black and white photograph of the subject, is imbued with vibrant colors to enliven the portrait. In particular, the dominant yellow, associated with joy and friendship, complements the figure beautifully. The artist has also used complementary colors to create a visual dialogue between them and enhance their respective intensity. The texture created by the use of a palette knife is another striking feature of this work: each stroke reveals the visible mark of its application.


Awards and mentions


This painting won 3rd place ex cuedo in the Impressionism category at the World Art Award in June 2023.
