Buy with confidence!A native of Le Havre, Gisèle LEMAURE, who previously signed Gisèle LEVASSEUR, has never done like everyone else in the Normandy artistic world. A former student of a post-impressionist master attached to the motif, Albert MALET, Gisèle LEMAURE paints in her studio, and not very large, believe me, where she deploys treasures of ingenuity to create large formats, immense even! A student of Albert MALET, Gisèle LEMAURE has exhibited for 40 years in Rouen and in the most renowned salons of the major cities. She has received several awards, including the Medal of the Rouen Salon. Although very respectful of the Rouen School, she first established herself with a beautiful expressionism of night scenes of exemplary richness. Then follows a quest for characters, essentially beautiful women, whom the artist imagines in multiple situations, where, with a skillful brush, she describes the woman through attitude, sensuality, the magic of transparencies and light at the whim of generous and warm colors.
