Artwork is in excellent condition. Certificate of Authenticity included. History: Caroline Benchétrit is a self-taught Canadian sculptor and painter and more recently the Creator and Producer of three animated television series currently in a global commercial phase. Following an MBA and PhD(ABD) studies in Strategy at McGill University, Benchetrit left a business and academic career to pursue the arts. Daughter of a painter, her signature style was first popularized through a series of whimsical life size ceramic and bronze sculptures and more recently through a collection of mixed media paintings involving acrylics and wax on canvas. Benchetrit's work has been widely published in accredited art journals and has been exhibited in over 15 galleries internationally, over the last fifteen years. Statement: Inspired by a world without rules, I use a narrative style in my expression where visual and textual allusions suggest the passionate message behind a seemingly simple scene. I combine color and texture to represent a liberating moment in time. The content is secondary to the communication of the authentic emotion. If I have tugged at the untamable spirit of the observer-I have done my work.
