Marie Yolaine Sanon
Painter |
A native of Jeremie (Haiti). My primary and secondary education were made to the
Sisters of Providence to Jeremiah and the daughters of Mary in Port-au-Prince.
The host
country, I got a D.E.C. In Gerontology, a D.E.C. In Special Education and a Bachelor of psychosocial
intervention.
As part of my profession, I worked more than twenty years in the hospital RDP and
psychiatric rehabilitation center.
To rub the misery and human degradation, we end up not
seeing the beauty of nature. It was a lack in my life.
Passion:
I paint what
I see. The beauties of nature fascinate me. I can fall into a swoon at a little flower, a sunset, twilight blue
and I am moved to tears.
Paint meets a need long buried in my subconscious. It's a personal
pleasure like a spiritual value that drives me to a blank canvas.
To be painted sharpens my
senses, enlighten my vision. Now I see life from different angles and I am very glad. The passion for painting has
always been inhabited since my childhood. My first sketch was born Elie Dubois school where classes tend to focus
on manual dexterity. There I took my first painting on wood.
I was then led to other ways,
until I stop working.
Now having enough free time to indulge myself, I chose to get back to
painting, in preference to other mediums that I had at my disposal. And here I am!
