FABIENNE DELACROIX
Fabienne Delacroix, the youngest daughter of naïf master painter Michel
Delacroix, is internationally celebrated for her charming and nostalgic
depictions of the French country and seaside. Although her work can be linked
stylistically to her father’s, she has certainly distinguished herself as a unique
and talented artist in her own right. She has a mastery of light and color that
is similar to that of French Impressionists. She paints not only with acrylics
but also with gouache and watercolor at times. Until recently, Fabienne was
known mainly for her seascapes and pastoral landscapes while her father was
renowned for his Parisian cityscapes. However, at the end of 2014, Michel
retired from painting and passed his legacy on to Fabienne who has now
expanded her lists of subjects to include the streets of Paris. Like her father’s,
Fabienne’s Paris is an older, simpler one with horse-drawn carriages filling the
streets. Although she is now carrying on her father’s work, Fabienne continues
to paint the French countryside, seaside and sometimes even Boston with her
signature flair. She currently lives and works in Paris, France.
Fabienne Delacroix’s subjects range from quiet, domestic interiors to convivial
park scenes and serene rainy days to luminous seascapes and harbors; she
offers views of the open-air market in France, New York’s own Central Park in
autumn and children playing in the snow. Although the content varies greatly,
all her works capture the spirit of the changing seasons in a simpler, quieter
France of the past. Her pieces are at once playful, joyous and lyrical and her
works are saturated with an undeniable love and admiration for the seasons
she depicts and the people and families living in her little worlds.
Born in 1972 to a family of artists, Fabienne was first exposed to art by her
father, Michel Delacroix. At just ten years old, she exhibited her paintings for
the first time at a gallery in Carmel, California; the show completely sold out.
Since 1996 she has devoted herself entirely to painting. Since that time, she
has had numerous successful exhibitions across the US and abroad.
