Contemporary Impressionism Artist
Isabelle Dupuy Fine Art



Biography


Born in France in 1969, Isabelle Dupuy spent her childhood in the country side of
Provence, in Southern France.  She developed her artistic skills at l' Ecole des
Beaux-Arts in Valence, France as a teenager and young adult.  It became a
passion.


Isabelle developed her style of Impressionism from her favorite artists, Monet and
Renoir.    Her paintings are often inspired by location near her home, the French
countryside.  Through her art, Isabelle transports the viewer to open spaces, much
like the home she grew up in.  She enjoys capturing on canvas the vivid colors
and light of the Mediterranean.


Isabelle current works incorporate use of color and texture while capturing nature
with a unique contemporary impressionism style.  She likes to keep her artwork
free of a conventional frame: she paints the sides of the canvas as if the
landscapes seem to exist beyond the canvas.  This more simple way helps the
viewer to focus on the artwork itself, becoming a unique masterpiece.  


Isabelle is an ambitious self-taught oil painter who will never limit her subject
matter, her techniques and her style.  She brings new energy to her work by
isolating the most important colors, developing a more bold way of painting for
maximum effect.  She sites French artists Vezinet, Serot, Ghiglione and Deymonaz
who have been a source of inspiration toward developing her own distinctive style.

Isabelle goes home to Provence very often to get more inspiration and to spend
time with her family.  France is where she met her husband Brad from Chicago,
and she is raising her two children with the intention of sharing with them the
beauty of her country.  She currently resides with her family in Houston, Texas
where she is doing what she loves most, painting.
