French artist Francoise Nielly is no stranger to the grand scale. Her vibrant, illuminating works regularly span six feet in length, a size that gives her work a captivating quality. These portraits capture the beauty and emotion of a range of faces, showing the colorful variety of the human spirit. With literally hundreds of portraits completed, her work has reached an international acclaim– including deep respect from the crew here at TheCoolist. We wouldn’t mind hanging one of her portraits on our own wall one day. [francoise nielly] View in gallery View in gallery View in gallery View in gallery
