Evelyne Pouget will be premiering a selection of her oil pastels and oil paintings at the San Antonio Artist's Studio Tour in San Miguel de Allende on February 20-21, 2016 Studio sale prices!
2. I began painting in 1992 after realizing there must have been a
reason why my teacher, Baba Muktananda, used to call me
“The Painter” – even though, until then, I had never picked up a
paint brush. My first painting was a portrait of him. It was then that
I realized I had a gift and that the rest of my life was going to be
the adventure of exploring that gift – which is what I am doing now,
focusing on portraiture (people and pets) and landscapes. I was born
in Paris, lived for a time in Rome, India, and New York City, and am
now dividing my time between Woodstock, NY and San Miguel.
Inspired by the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley and Mexico,
as well as the many extraordinary people I’ve met in my travels, my
painting embodies the three aspects of life that are most meaningful
to me: beauty, soul, and the quest for heartfelt connection. Most
recently, my work has been suffused with the spirit, sacredness, and
color of Mexico, my subjects being a mix of street vendors, elders,
and costumed dancers from various indigenous traditions.
