Thuline De Cock’s Biography
I was born in Bruges and finished my studies in interior Architecture in 1993. After a 3-year break, during which I worked as an educational assistant in an immigration centre, travelled to the states, Ghana and several countries in Europe.
In 1995 I had a holiday romance in the mountains of Andalusia, which was the reason I moved to Kendal. It was my partner (now husband) who encouraged me, to start painting again.
I became a member of the Green Door Studios, an artists association, based in Kendal. Working alongside other practising artists has provided me with much support and played a vital part in the way my work has evolved over the years.
I observe animals, their shapes, gestures and mannerisms and in developing my ideas, I take them quite often out of their context. I like using bold colours.
In my work, I explore the possibilities of bringing the subjects in and out of focus. Composition plays an important role in my paintings. I sometimes use perspective to distort images.
I enjoy the gathering of information as much 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 stop to amaze and fascinate me.
