Welcome! I’m Fabienne, a visual artist, painter, living in a charming coastal town, on the shores of east Ireland.
Originally from western France (the Vendée), as a child, I found myself developing a true passion for art, particularly enjoying experimenting with various types of materials – from fabric to paint to clay. This led, later on, to study Interior Architecture, and then to completing Visual Arts Practice courses in the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin. I also took painting courses at the Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts (RHA) and completed the Turps Art School (UK) mentoring program for painters (2024/26).
Over the past decade, I have explored practices such as textile art, printmaking and natural dyeing. This experimentation continues to inform my approach to painting, in how I think about layering , surface and the balance between abstraction with architectural forms. My current practice is focused primarily on oil and acrylic painting. Fascinated by urban landscapes, I explore how structures and shapes connect us to our surroundings.
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me, my art and my creative process, and I hope that you find a piece that resonates with you.
