Veronique Godbout Biography

Emerging Canadian artist Veronique Godbout works in a naive style. Her artworks radiate optimism and vitality.

Veronique is inspired by nature: animals, flowers, butterflies. She paints marvellous birds and fish, cats with perfectly striped fur, flowers more cheerful than in nature.

With a childlike spirit, Veronique has developed her painting techniques using her imagination and sensitivity. She works with color in a very personal way, creating strong contrasts between the subjects, her naive style and the complex techniques she uses to give her paintings life. Using precise and opaque textures, she creates a mosaic effect, which she polishes using a shiny varnish that sets off the strong colors of the paintings.
