Isabelle Garcia was born in Bar-sur-Aube, in the Champagne region of France. Nothing in the beginnings of her professional life predestined her to become a painter. Yet, a simple child’s game was enough to awaken a buried vocation. In the 1990s, this talented self-taught artist began drawing to entertain her children. Very soon, she was the one captivated — exploring, experimenting, and refining her gestures. After several years working in administration, she gradually opened herself to a new path: that of creation.
She then experimented with various artistic techniques before choosing oil, which she considers a noble medium — demanding, yet generous. “I find it noble,” she says, “and it offers me many possibilities in glazes and blends… I often create my own colors through random mixtures.” This mastered spontaneity became her signature. Each canvas is born from a subtle balance between instinct, technical precision, and heartfelt impulse.
