Madame Parisian - Brittany Chipendale.
Description
500x680mm Unframed. Watercolour and wax crayon. ARTIST STATEMENT: When I first moved to Paris I became friends with an old lady who lived in the flat above me. Despite her not speaking any English and my French being basic she still made me feel welcome and was very kind by making sure I was Ca Va every day. She was not only lovely but also exceptionally cool. From some of the conversations we had, I got the impression that she was free spirited and very energetic. She told me in order for me to learn French I need to get a French boyfriend as thats the quickest and most cost effective way. She was also very against wifi and technology which I thought was refreshing and pretty cool. I decided to embody her young energy in this portrait of what I felt she would have looked in her earlier years. She really made my move to Paris even more wonderful and I feel this painting not only holds a lot of power but quite a bit of sass too. ABOUT THE ARTIST: Winner of SAF Students Prize, Guernsey 2016. Recipient of the SAF Bursary 2017-2020.

Should a lot win either the Judges’ Prize or Public Prize in this national competition, it will automatically be enrolled in the Sovereign Global Students Prize; the buyer will have to agree for the piece to be available for display at the Global Students Prize Exhibition, scheduled to take place in Q1 2022.
