Lately I have been finding myself drawn to the bold portraits by Francoise Nielly. Through her technique of mixing oil and UV paint she creates some of the most vivid works of art that stop you in your tracks. This portrait's energy sucks you in with its aggressive brush strokes and the intensity with which her eyes capture you. I can sense the main figures free spirit through the movement of the colors. She almost seems as if she is floating through the spackled layers. It is as if her eyes are telling you she knows you are not as free as she is, and is inviting you to step into the work with her.
