After having completed studies in law at Ottawa University, and received at the Québec Bar, Regout refines her passion for expressive figurative graphic arts. A born equestrian, this sport has proven to be a constant source of inspiration as well as a real antidote to adversity. Avid traveller, it is during a trip to Slovakia that the artist discovers reverse painting on glass; it was love at first sight.

Concurrently to her creation, the artist has put to perfection an innovative process to give a permanent protection to her paintings so that they are as well protected in the back, as in the front, protecting them against the traces of time. Each piece is titled, numbered, dated, signed and hermitically sealed using the special process being patented.


REVERSE PAINTING ON GLASS...IN A NUTSHELL

Here it is the glass which supports the piece as would canvas, paper or wood. The artist starts with the elements which are closer, to progressively move toward, and end with the background. This means that from the start, it is a must for the artist to bear in mind, to the smallest detail, the final vision of the piece being created. As in engraving, it is necessary, during the execution, to constantly bear in mind the reversal since what is painted upside down to the right turns itself right side up to the left. The glass is used at the same time as support as well as protective varnish.
