Rainy nights

Claude Belisle — Sat, 13 Jun 2026 20:45:35 +0000

Original artwork.
Rainy Night (36 x 24 in), acrylic on wood, presents a female figure in profile, wrapped in an intimate and mysterious nocturnal atmosphere. The striking contrast between the deep turquoise background and the dark silhouette gives the work an elegant, dramatic, and enigmatic presence. Her blonde hair, rendered with loose luminous gestures, becomes a vibrant counterpoint within the composition.

Visible sketch lines, translucent facial passages, and touches of pink, green, and yellow enrich the surface with great sensitivity. The painting evokes those solitary reflective moments associated with rainy evenings, when thoughts feel closer and emotions grow quieter. Between strength and fragility, Rainy Night captures a suspended, almost secret moment, as the figure seems absorbed in her inner world.

Miss BB (Digital artwork 1/25)

Claude Belisle — Sat, 06 Jun 2026 21:06:29 +0000

Original artwork.

With miss BB, Christine Gagné presents a work inspired by the mythical aura of Brigitte Bardot, the world-renowned French artist and a defining figure in the collective imagination. Rather than creating a realistic portrait, the artist evokes an attitude, an elegance, and a presence: that of a woman who is at once seductive, free, and mysterious.

The black and white palette enhances the graphic quality of the work and gives the figure a timeless presence. The top hat, intense gaze, and lively drawn lines create a composition that feels both theatrical and refined. Through her expressive approach, Christine Gagné transforms this iconic reference into a personal interpretation, where femininity becomes strength, style, and symbol.

The artwork reflects the artist’s sensitive universe, where feminine figures come to life through gesture, suggestion, and emotion.

Original artwork.

One Eyed Friend (30 x 24 in), acrylic on wood, shows a stylized portrait against a turquoise ground. Deep violets carve the hair and shadows, while plum accents energize the eyes and lips. Wood grain and graphite scratches peek through translucent layers, building texture and pace. Small yellow sparks add tension and lead the gaze to the face, where a more defined eye anchors the composition. Expressive, contemporary, and luminous.
