Thuline was born in 1970 in Bruges, Belgium. In 1993, after finishing
her studies in Interior Design in Gent, Belgium, Thuline took a three
year break to travel – visiting such countries as the USA, Ghana,
and several in Europe. Thuline moved to England in 1996 and combines
her passion for painting with raising a young family. “I observe
animals; their shapes, gestures and mannerisms and in developing my
ideas I take them quite often out of their context. In my work I explore
the possibilities of bringing the subjects in and out of focus. Composition
plays an important role in my paintings and I sometimes use perspective
to distort images. I like using bold colours. I enjoy the gathering
of information as I do the painting. Cows are funny creatures. Just
like humans, they have their own characters – their faces show
expressions and a curiosity that never stops to amaze and fascinate
me.”
