About the Book

Welcome to the country of daydreams... "Once upon a Time" is a Catalogue Raisonné of Fine Art Figurative Paintings. It gathers the energy and inspiration of a 40 year art career. Created between 1975 and 2015, these Fine Art works represent an overall life experience, and you are invited to discover not only the paintings but the "open book" of this artist's life! I specialized in Oil Pastels, my favorite medium to express my inner feelings and emotions born from everyday life. I would try to capture the ambiance or mood of a particular moment or scenery, and transfer it onto the canvas or paper. However, I would also often first make spontaneous sketches in nature, courtesy of my other favorite media: Soft Pastels, Gouache, Watercolor and Graphite Sticks, the perfect tools for studies that would enable me to catch an instant in time. Through these artworks, in turn you are invited to discover the inner travels these paintings may inspire. My wish is that they are like keys that open the world of Imaginary Travels, and that they allow the viewers to embark and complete the artwork in their own way. The keys to freedom may just be there in these magical images, escape awaits: look, see, dream, create and become children again as in simpler times! Happy Imaginary Voyages!
About the Author: Marie-Pierre Desaize is a French artist living in Cannes, France. She has been involved with Business and Art for most of her life. She started to exhibit her artworks in 1993. Painting and Photography remain a beautiful passion for over 40 years; in addition, Marie-Pierre also consider Art as a wonderful passport for meeting with great people and beautiful world, but also for discovering amazing hidden beauties in nature. She believes in Art as a potential "future" to better the life of the human beings: "A piece of Art for Peace" has become a "crusade" in her Art research. Her Painting and Photography artworks have been welcomed in many solo and group exhibitions, and they're part of many private and public collections throughout the world; they have been often awarded, and also acclaimed by media; sold on auction, they got an official international quotation (ArtPrice, 2014.) Since 1993 Marie-Pierre had 36 Solo & 18 Group Exhibits in the world, including France: Paris (Le Grand Palais, Carrousel du Musée du Louvre), Cannes, Giverny; USA: Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Santa Fe, San Francisco, Hawaii; Italy: Florence; UK: London; Spain: Madrid; Monaco; México: Campeche; Mauritius; Japan: Kobe; Peru: Cusco.

They are mentioned in books Published in USA, France, Switzerland, etc. They received Distinctions such as: "EXCELLENT PRIZE", Hyogo Museum; "DIPLOMA of HONOR", Cusco. In 2015, she also published in the US "Extraction Lyrique", a series of Abstract Photography harvested between 2007 and 2015. Meanwhile, she has been honored to receive an official invitation from the World President of IAA-UNESCO (International Art Association, NGO in official partnership with UNESCO) to create "World Art Day" celebrations along with my art events, on each April 15 -such as 1st-ever WAD events I organized in Brittany, France, in 2014 (in collaboration with Rennes-Amitié) & Los Angeles, California, USA in 2015 (in collaboration with Downtown Los Angeles Artwalk). She highly appreciates this great honor for such an important cause and she keeps involved with it.
