Paula Saneaux

Visual Artist

Inspired by old masters and succeeding with her most recent show “Ellas” at Funglode, themed of semi-naked women who express their feelings and secrets through their gaze- this painter is ready to move to Los Angeles in a search for other resources for her art.

THE BRUSH AND ME

When painting, the brush is a tool of my previously visualized inspirations. In this last series I used acrylic, canvas, oil and pastel.

MORE AND MORE ART

I’m a film lover. I like american movies from the 80’s and historic and dramatic films. For reading, I prefer Edgar Allan Poe’s books and the sarcasm of Tim Burton.

SPIRITUAL

I don’t consider myself a religious person, but I believe in karma. I read fables to take some kind of learning to become a better person. I believe in taking care of our environment, too.

ALWAYS GLORIOUS

I love any kind of chocolate, specially white chocolate, oh! and I also love Sushi!

TRANSITION

I used to be a little dark and dramatic. Sometimes I saw things in a negative way. But now I think that a person gets more with opening up. Being dramatic, it’s “too much”.

OTHER HALF

When a person gets to a moment where he or she really appreciates his or her family and finds “the one” I think they have learned what life is about.

FUSIONS

I’m a Middle Eastern Dancer and a Tribal Fusion Dancer. I’ve been dancing since I was 15, since then, both paintings and dancing have become my two passions.
