      Inspirations

      This framed black and white artwork is a culmination of my many trips on the French and Italian Rivieras, my love of timeless elegance, and devouring vintage photographs, postcards and fashion magazines in book markets in Paris, Nice and the South of France.

      The Côte d'Azur has such a rich history of fascinating, talented and glamorous women who lived, visited, created and relaxed here - from Coco Chanel, Brigitte Bardot to Dalida. Not to mention the Italian Riviera, right next door, with its glamourous and beautiful Italian women, fashion, elegance,
      culture and romantic allure.

      I wanted to create an artwork that encapsulates this sense of the Côte d'Azur's cultural history, pays homage to the legendary women who contributed to its glamour, and also conveys a sense of elegance and carefree Riviera escapism...while also maintaining a sense of elusive mystery that leaves room for the viewer's imagination in this beautiful Mediterranean destination.

      Creative Process

      This framed art print was handcrafted in multiple phases and mixed fine-art mediums and techniques. I began by drawing in pencil and paper many versions of the drawing, until I was happy with the overall composition. Then I moved on to very large textured paper: using charcoal and pencil, I illustrated the base drawing and painted a thin layer of watercolour for the background shading.

      Once I finalized the landscape and figures composition, I used a series of graphic markers to draw in layers, adding textures, contrasts, highlights and details, bringing a realistic dimensionality to the art, while also keeping a modern edge in terms of the graphic use of lines and tonality. After photographing the final original artwork,
      I used digital editing software to fine tune and perfect the details, enhance contrasts and highlights to ensure that the original quality would translate beautifully on this framed wall art print.
