Swann Freslon

Born in France / Works in San Rafael, CA

BIO

Born in France and raised across several African countries, art has been central to Swann Freslon's life from an early age. She began painting for herself during her studies in France, using repurposed advertising cardboard as canvas. After living in France, England, and Canada, she now resides in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her abstract practice centers on color, texture, and layering, using acrylics, pastels, and resin. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is held in private and corporate collections.

I am a fine art artist inspired by the vibrant colors and dynamic energy of my surroundings. Each experience, joyful or poignant, shapes my abstract work and fuels my creative process. Through abstraction, I explore the act of letting go—releasing emotions, both my own and those of the viewer. Using color as an emotional language, I aim to create work that resonates deeply, inviting viewers to feel intuitively rather than overanalyze, connecting with the raw emotion within each piece.
