            Éloïse was born in 1993 and grew up in the rural community of Saint-Côme Linière, a small village in the region of Beauce, Québec. Her interest in art took root at an early age and blossomed into a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, with a major in painting and drawing, from Concordia University in Montréal.

            Éloïse, a visual artist committed to realism, breathes life into her art through oil painting. The conceptualization of her work is derived from her photography, moments captured on her camera. In the portrayal of her subjects, she captures the surrounding environment and evokes the scene’s emotional ambiance.

             She paints that which she observes in her photographs, in particular, she examines the composition and the spaces surrounding the subject, that is to say the negative spaces.

              The imagery and rustic elements of the countryside provide vivid memories of her childhood, forging her artistic style. Land as subject, it is earth and soil nourishing both her creativity and vision as evoked in her choice of colour palette. “My choice of colours is reminiscent of Spring, of raw earth at first thaw, earth tones, of browns, beiges, and ochres, pigments sullied by the earth.” The raw material that evokes a bygone era, is the cornerstone of her inspiration.

              Éloise sees herself in the works of artists such as Andrew Wyeth and Jean-François Millet, inspiring artistic figures in the movement of naturalism.
