Flora Langlois is first and foremost a nature enthusiast. Her passion for the natural world infuses her paintings with a joyous energy and a distinct vision that echoes her love for her native land of Costa Rica. In her new body of works, Flora surrounds her mystical characters with songbirds of exceptional character.
“Imagination Flights are what I call my fragile mental constructions. They will disappear when one is confronted by the strictures of daily life. While in my studio, I nurture those flights based on the wonders of the natural world which I have been observing, studying, walking or collecting (shells, nests, dry pods, fossils, bones) since very young. -Flora Langlois
