About Christel Roelandt
I`m a Belgian painter from the beautiful city of Ghent in Flanders. I have a great love of portraits; trying to capture the moment and the feeling in the subject`s eyes. My work focuses on the human form; faces and nudes. I'm inspired by all things beautiful and often by books, music and films. Thanks for your visit here! Christel. (All rights reserved.

Haha, Jennifer... now ... that IS great to hear!! If I gave you that "little push" you needed, that`s the greatest compliment to my work! Go, go, get your brushes out!! Thank you so much, have a great Friday
Sarah Rachel
Maria Callas!!!!!! She is the most amazing Opera singer of all time!!!! Her version of Ave Maria just brings me to tears every time. I'm so happy to see this! I've created a few of her myself but I think yours is better! You are very talented. I love this captured emotion. Special L/F
Christel Roelandt replied:
Yes, to me too I find Callas the greatest, they try to convince me that there are others with much purer voices, but who wants perfect purity? It`s all in that vulnerability, in that croak, in that total fragility so openly and generously displayed and "thrown out" there, like in all arts, right?! Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback and support, Sarah. Have a great weekend. Christel.

Looks like sympathy to me. Very provocative.

Yes, might be a bit of that too, there`s seldom just one feeling expressed in eyes, isn`t there? Thank you so much for your kind words, John. Happy weekend, Christel.
