Elisabeth
Davy-Bouttier was born in 1960 in Beaupréau, France. She spend her
childhood there. In 1980, after a stay of 2 years abroad, she settled down
in Paris where she worked as Public Relations. In 1987, she moved in
Toulouse where she lives henceforth with her family.
She
begins to paint in 1994. From 1998 she dedicates herself exclusively to
her passion : the painting.”When I paint, my paintbrush becomes a key
which opens me the door of a magic land, where I stroll according to my
moods” It is Lia Kasper from the Gallery Pro Arte Kasper in Switzerland
(specialist of the naïve art) who gives her the opportunity to exhibit in
solo.
Today she is present in numerous collections in France and abroad.

”
She possesses a magical painting style, very peculiar and incomparable in
the way she pictures everyday life and the social interactions in the
various rural and urban environments that surround her. In a precise and
rigorous stroke, applying color palettes of extraordinary beauty and
strong light effects, her works enchant and inspire the observers to
dream.”.
Pedro
de Almeida – Allarts Gallery, Lisbon, Portugal
