Maritime landscapes
Through her paintings, France shares with us her passion for the sea and the strong moments of a regatta. She invites us on these streamlined sailboats in full race and makes us feel this adrenaline and this immensity of the ocean.

Portraits
So many expressions on these faces painted for some by letting go and for others made with the mixed techniques of acrylic and posca. Through these portraits, France conveys different feelings to us.
