Jeanne Maze
The beauty of a face in profile caught on paper; patches of colour on the artist’s apron; the scent of freshly mixed paint and the soft folds of thick, ochre-coloured paper; the world seen through an eye as sharp as a summer sky. Art, grace, imagination: Jeanne Maze.
An Artist’s Vineyard
A natural talent links Jeanne Maze’s art to her grandfather, Paul Maze, one of the last of the great post-impressionists and an inspirational man. The influence of her grandfather is apparent in Jeanne’s creative spirit and understanding of nuance, qualities apparent in her art.
An appreciation of the natural world and a strong family identity, an aesthetic sensibility handed down through the generations, are pillars of Jeanne’s art and allow her to take the viewer on a fascinating voyage of the imagination.
“Cognac producing is a wonderful mixture of human knowledge passed down to blood lines. You have people who have been tasting the eau-de-vie for 9 or 10 generations. They’re learning from each other and passing the knowledge down, almost by telepathy. I’m privileged to be able to play a little part in it with our own vines.”
