Born in Lyon, Murielle Argoud started painting with great energy from a very early age and also tried her hand at writing:
an art which still fascinates her. After spending several years abroad and sixteen years in Basel (CH), she settled down with
her family on the shores of Lake Geneva, although she still feels that she is just passing through.
Forever searching for new inspiration, she is always keen to explore fresh horizons.
She has already had over forty personal exhibitions in Europe, has created a chapel altar painting and many of her works are
now in private collections and public institutions.

searching for new forms of expression.
She has worked in Cyprus, Crete, Santorini,
Andalousia, and Belle-Isle-en-mer, which has
become her favourite location.
After two years in Austria and a year in
Germany she began to teach art from a
philosophical perspective
while at the same time preparing her own
exhibitions.

At present, Murielle Argoud lives and works mainly between Lake Geneva, the Ticino an Basel with regular breaks
at Belles-Isle-en-mer.
