Jacqueline E. Coudray creates contemporary French impressions of life and light in oil paint on linen. Coudray also expresses her creative spirit in gouache, pastel, charcoal, and mixed media. Inspired more often by human beings, water and light, Coudray captures expressions of mother nature’s creation - organically beautiful. She is passionate about capturing creative play and joy close to water, in nature, or in a garden setting. Genre of work includes: Portraiture, Island Life, Gardens, Water and Le Costume. She carves-in thick impasto, rich colors juxtaposed to subtle harmonic neutrals of grounded and textured earth tones. She captures the seasons of each year, illusive fog, clouds, early dawn, and the last moments of a day’s light.View Galleries  →
