About the Artist

Bailliere finds beauty in the mundane, and it is in these everyday moments that she finds endless inspiration for her paintings. Whether through direct observation, both in the studio and en plein air, or through photos as reference material, Bailliere seeks to slow the steady march of time by lingering on a specific instant and interpreting the angle of the sun, the light, the colors, in paint.
