Séraphine

Séraphine Louis, known as "Séraphine de Senlis" ("Séraphine of Selis") (1864–1942), was a French painter in the naive style. Self-taught, she was inspired by her religious faith and by stained-glass church windows and other religious art. The intensity of her images, both in color and in replicative designs, are sometimes interpreted as a reflection of her own psyche, walking a tightrope between ecstasy and mental illness. images of painting

There's a movie called Séraphine, 2008 which touched her very much when she was showing the large scale painting in the movie.

She wanna finish her paintings as well.
