About
I am a self-taught London-based Anglo-French artist, seeking to raise awareness about the beauty of our world with bold and colourful abstract artworks. My favourite themes have always been the fauna and flora of our planet, as well as the complexity of human emotions, which has been an increasingly present topic in my portfolio. I additionally explore various colour palettes specifically designed to create visually peaceful pieces, and sooth the mind of my audience.
My work has so far been exhibited in both London and Paris and is featured on SINGULART, ArtFinder and more. Some of my pieces can currently be viewed at the Century Soho Members Club in London as well as TV Chef Paul Merrett's restaurant in Wimbledon. My work has additionally been featured in TATLER Magazine's September 2022 Issue of Decor Decorum as well as the October & November 2022 Issues.

3 questions on inspiration with
Tessa Paul
We're asking artists to choose one notable person, place and object that has inspired them in their journey so far. We're mapping inspiration at a scale never attempted before
Person
There are many artistic masters that have inspired me to paint, however if I had to pick one out of the lot, I would have to say Joan Miró. His approach to abstract and shapes has always fascinated me, and his choice of colour palettes is what initially inspired me to take on a colour psychology to understand how colours impact our minds.
Place
The place that has inspired me to paint the most, has been the Okavango Delta in Botswana. I spent a week there in 2019, and fell in love with the fluidity and the colours of life there. From the people to the fauna and flora, many of the wonderful sights there have been portrayed in my works.
Object
I think that the item I've most been inspired by over the years, if I had to choose one, has been a compass. There are so many meanings to a compass, ranging from directions, to emotional and moral stability, to love and family, or to adventure and thrill. I really enjoy finding new ways of integrating it in my artworks. I like to think that it is often one of the symbols that appears in most of my pieces and ties them all together !
