Short biography

Corine Lescop, born in 1960, is a French-Canadian painter who lives and works in Brussels. Trained at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and in Japanese and Chinese calligraphy, she has exhibited since 1980 in Japan, Belgium, France and China. Her painting combines oil, Chinese paper, and gold and silver leaf. Her ongoing series, Aquatic Escape, pays tribute to her father, a deep-sea diver in the Gaspé Peninsula and Newfoundland, and to threatened coral reefs.
