LITHOGRAPH ON PAPER BY MARTINE COTTEN ART CARIBEEN MAISON GUADELOUPE A4048 This lithograph was produced by Martine Cotten French artist from Guadeloupe des Isles des Saintes precisely. The special light, the colorful landscapes of Les Saintes are a source of inspiration for artists, locals or visitors. Martine Cotten is one of these inspired artists. She is not Guadeloupean but Breton, originally from southern Finistère, from Pont Aven, a superb little town near Concarneau. The beauty of the place has attracted many painters and it is in this artistic atmosphere that she developed her talent. It is by optimally using pastels that she was able to render the particular tones of the granite landscapes of the south of her native Brittany. Then, after several trips to the West Indies, she discovered the splendor and the particular lighting of these tropical zones, to the point of wanting to reproduce them and set up her workshop there. It is a representation of a typical Caribbean house with a nice rendering of colors and a beautiful technique in the vegetation.
