About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Collages

Collage is an artistic creation technique that consists of making a plastic creation by combining elements of various kinds: more or less flat materials, such as printed oilcloth, painting or drawing, newspaper extracts with text and photos, paper paintings, documents, various objects of low relief, etc. When the creation incorporates elements in relief, one can also speak of assemblage. This also includes glued papers, which employ a variety of papers, including newspaper, and drawing techniques.

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Ink

A strongly tinted liquid or paste that is used to mark paper or other printable materials. The design is done manually with a slab, feather, brush, or straightener.

Gouache

The substances are diluted with water and rendered pasty and opaque by the addition of gum and honey. The colors become opaque and can, therefore, be superimposed, which makes one paint with gouache as with oil. The gouache is recommended by its bright, fresh and delicate tones.

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Engraving

Engraving technique consisting of incising or digging a matrix using a tool. After inking, it is printed on paper or another medium.

Linocuts

Engraving technique consisting in removing the blanks or “reserves” on a linoleum . After inking, the raised part of the is printed on paper or on another .

Monotype

Printing technique without engraving which produces a unique print. It consists of painting a non-porous which will serve as a for printing.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on s such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Settled in in 1980 after her studies at the Beaux Arts in London, Helen Hill moved to the Dordogne in 1986. Very recently, since the end of 2022, she moved to Lot et Garonne.

She has been exhibiting throughout since 1985.

“I am consciously inspired by the landscapes, a view through a window or through the vegetation, those of Périgord with its faceted forests. multiple, those of my British Cornwall and its now abandoned mining operations and the bocage undulations of Limousin. The essence of the lights, sparkling and oceanic, filtering through the undergrowth or leaden under a threatening sky encourages me to transcribe the emotion felt. »

Collage has always been his main technique. Paper, of all kinds, must be flexible, worked, reworked before the work is produced. More frequently she creates the “graphic image” on the paper based on a preconceived idea but she also happens to be inspired by a piece of paper.

Concerning its function, the prepared paper must create a surface that is only visual because the physical appearance (the relief) does not interest him.

The imprint, engraving and rubbing have been present in his collages for a very long time: motifs that recur, repeat, resemble each other without being completely identical.

Collage allows him to construct an image by adding piece after piece. “Errors” which, in fact, are only inappropriate in a given context, will be found entirely or partially hidden.
