About Sofy...
Though she is not a professionnal artist by no means, my mother is a wonderful watercolourist and
portraitist.
When she finally decided to show her paintings -before her very first public exhibition
in Paris which, by the way, met with a great success- to a very famous
painter, Jaro Hilbert,
she asked him to give me personal lessons of drawing and painting.
The latter teached me not only the rudimentary bases of drawing and oil painting, but what perseverance means
also.
After a chance meeting with a china painter, thanks and
because of my family and my friends support, I was convinced to try and discover china painting.
Therefore I took lessons at the famous Paris Chambrelain school;
there, I was tought how to prepare different colours, to blend
pigments... How to use your own kiln...
Since, as you can see in my galery and shop, I can paint on any piece of china, and this is a true passion for me!
A passion to share with you!
Your comments and wishes more than welcome!
Hopefully, talk to you soon.
