Christine Lance discovered the world of painting at a very early age, which triggered a real
passion in her. This passion was to take shape through her studies at the Art School, then
with internationally renowned painters (Valladié, Taupin, Bonnefoit, Bargoni). She was thus
initiated into all techniques, taking pleasure in discovering this universe where everything is
expression and know-how... Acrylic, watercolour, oil and pastel were to become her
languages, creation her silent but sensory means of communication.
Attracted by Impressionism, then seduced by Lyrical Abstraction, the artist expresses herself
more particularly through oil painting, a vibrant material that plays with light reflections and
nuances. The sensuality and subtlety of oil painting captivated her and she tamed it through
Lyrical Abstraction, an artistic movement that encourages the deepest expression of
emotions. From this love affair with sensory purity, many paintings were born in which she
built a very personal universe. Christine says: "I paint with matter and play with
transparency and light effects. Freedom of movement is essential to express oneself fully,
painting reflects the state of mind at the moment of creation but also a desire to transmit,
through the play of shapes and colours, a lyrical poetry that challenges the viewer.
Freedom nestles in his works, it is felt through a vibrant chromatic harmony and a desire to
share. Enthusiasm and spontaneity are present in every texture. Christine Lance's painting is
dynamic, she encourages us to meditate, to be moved or to rediscover ourselves.
