The first step is to change my name to Seraphine de Senlis and then to sell some prints of her, sorry 'my' work. Since mentioning her here in a film recommendation a few weeks ago I have had quite a lot of internet hits from surfers trying to find out more about her work and buy prints. LOOK! LOOK! See the similarities in my work and hers, are you sure you wouldn't rather buy one of my prints instead? No? Oh well it was worth a try.
So Seraphine Louis, I had the same problem with finding out about you after I found out you existed, so in a tribute and to help you lost souls, here are my top Seraphine de Senlis resources:
- Art and Psychosis - her rise to fame.
- Good old Wikipedia (although it leaves a lot to be desired)
- A few pictures on the Palette Museum website....
- ...and a little bit of everything...
..and, if you want to see some of her work in real life then there are currently exhibited works at:
Musée d’art de Senlis,
Musee Maillol in Paris,
Musée d’art naïf in Nice,
Musée d’Art moderne Lille Métropole in Villeneuve d’Ascq
So come now Miss Louis - STOP STEALING MY THUNDER!!
