Meet Madeleine

A love of art that began in the Louvre and never left

Madeleine's story starts in France, in childhood visits to the Louvre, and carries through her migration to Australia at seventeen. When her sight declined she did not stop painting. She changed how she paints, building each work through touch and the memory of colour.
