A Zooming Technique
Isabelle has always admired the way photographers can
isolate and enhance a subject by making the rest of the
photo soften and blurred.
Isabelle developed a new painting technique where she
isolates the most important part of the painting with
texture and sharpness while the rest is soften to produce a
zooming effect as a photographer would do with his
camera.
This unique technique, which Isabelle called "Le Fondu"
creates a very definite tactile quality to her work. She
deliberately enhance the focus point of her painting using
her palette knife and her brush sculpting the form of her
subject. In this technique, she goes beyond a
photographer making it a three dimensional effect.
