Lucette Bourdin
Lucette Bourdin was born in a small rural town in eastern France, near the Doubs river. She came to southern California in 1982 where she has dedicated her life to painting. Self-taught, she has found her way. She has acquired greater assurance as an artist as evidenced by her even bolder use of color and composition. Never timid, she has used color as an intimate expression of her inner self. These forays into her expeditions of psyche portray revelations of a playful yet sophisticated voyageur, and we are happily embarked with her on this personal journey of self discovery. A trip such as this challenges even a Marco Polo. You travel through emerald valleys, magenta rivers and climb to heights of golden mounds, you explore down paths deeper and more mystical than when you are just out walking, all in the blinking of an eye or digital conveyance.
The brushwork heightens the adventure through space by either control or reckless abandonment. You follow the path of your choice. Just as moods are dictated by nuances of fleeting feelings, these colors are the results of moments in time – yours or hers. These choices are privileges we have. They are ours. We can share them or just selfishly savor. I recommend both.

1954-2011
The world lost one of its shining lights this week. After a long transformational and creative journey with breast cancer Lucette made her transition into the Light at 10:40 p.m. on February 17th 2011. She will be remembered for her kindness, her art and her music. Her music was especially the product of her transformation through cancer. When diagnosed she said of her desire to create music, "if not now, when?".
We at Earth Mantra will miss Lucette Bourdin very much, for her gorgeous music, her deep talent, and most of all, for her profound and uplifting viewpoint on life itself. We feel very privileged for being able to have brought her music to you, and are very proud that her music will live on even though she is no longer with us. Read more on Last.fm.
