About the Artist
As a child , Bridgette spent a number of years in Paris, France. Her parents used the opportunity to visit famous art galleries, museums and sites of great architectural value. Bridgette was fascinated by the achievements and creations of the masters and much of her fantasy life as a child and teenager revolved around living a Bohemian lifestyle and spending her days in Parisian street cafes , painting amongst the artists in Montmartre.
Bridgette studied art as a high school subject but, being of a high-spirited and non-conforming nature, felt stifled by the highly structured class regime and became frustrated at being unable to freely express herself on the canvas.
It was therefore not art that Bridgette initially pursued as a career. Although painting remained a part of her life, it was not until 1998 that she began painting professionally.
Bridgette's paintings are diverse. She loves deep colour and often uses vast tonal contrasts in her work, changing between the brush and palette knife to create paintings full of movement and energy; whether they be floral arrangements or landscapes. However, nude studies have become Bridgette's trademark. Monochrome work was initially unusual for Bridgette and her first nude studies were nothing more than experimentation with a different style. Demand for the works have determined that the nude studies have become Bridgette's top sellers.
Bridgette currently lives in The Valley of 1000 Hills KZN South Africa where she paints from her home studio and consults as a Colour Therapist.
Bridgette has exhibited country wide in South Africa. Her works have been bought by art lovers world wide and she is represented by galleries across the country as well as internationally.
