About the Item
Therese painted this piece in response to an experience she had whilst visiting the 6th century St Tudno's Church on the Great Orme. She came across it by accident and found it very spiritually moving. Therese discovered later that the church was a place of pilgrimage for prayer and peace.
In her own words; "It is representative and has painted itself without much thought involved". The painting contains, "lots of symbolism which introduced itself".
Therese is gaining a transatlantic following and works like this one show why. It's a very special, spiritual piece.
Acrylic on canvas.

- Au Lac. Large Naive Acrylic on Board.Located in Cotignac, FRLarge Naïve acrylic on board attributed to a French artist named Le Bris as the work was bought with another painting signed by the artist. The painting is presented in a gilt wooden baton frame. Naïve art is often seen as outsider art that is by someone without formal (or little) training or degree. While this was true before the twentieth century, there are now academies for naïve art. Naïve art is now a fully recognized art genre, represented in art galleries worldwide. The characteristics of naïve art have a challenging relationship to the formal qualities of painting, especially as they tend not to respect the three rules of the perspective (such as defined by the Progressive Painters of the Renaissance): 1. Decrease of the size of objects proportionally with distance, 2. Muting of colours with distance, 3. Decrease of the precision of details with distance. The results are: Effects of perspective are geometrically erroneous (distinctive aspect of the works, like the drawing of a child...Category
