Fabienne ARIETTI was born in Marseille in 1955. She founded in 1980 the Villa Corot (studio) in Paris where she still lives and works. Her technique is the "Old Masters' one's. The colours are made in the studio from crushed organic and mineral pigments. The work is being made by transparency, from the clearest to the darkest with the help of successive glazes painted one after the other until the wished result. Finally, between 30 and 50 coats of gaze judiciously chosen give an exceptional spirit to the enamelled colours of old paintings.
Founded in 1847 by Adolphe Braun and based close to the Swiss border in the south of France, Editions Braun work with a number of exclusive artists to publish a range of vibrant and unique imagery across many categories including floral, ethnic, cityscapes and stunning colour photography. Their new Inspirations Catalogue 2009 – 2010 contains more than 800 images.
