Welcome on Onde Colorée!
Handpainting on textile
My name is Magalie, I am french, originaly from Toulouse. I recently moved to Portugal, after having been living in Frankfurt, Germany, working as an educator. But now I decide to let my job on the side, to start my new occupation: Paint on textile. This was already my hobby for years so why not trying to do something constructive about it?
​
"Onde Colorée" is born. It means "coloured wave" and this makes reference on my style of painting which sometimes reminds me the movement of water: free, unstable and super strong at the same time. It is fascinating.
As a coincidence, my firts T-shirt that I made in 2003, after a travel in Japan, represents also water: The famous Wave from Hokusaï.
​
Before the pandemic, I started to sell on street handcrafts markets in Porto. But since, I am happy to answer to your personnal orders which come to enrich my creativity.
​
So please don´t hesitate to surprise me and give me a new challenge to realise. I will be glad to honour it!

Rare are the photos of me painting. These date back to 2014. I was making a t-shirt for my nephew on the theme of Tanzania, after returning from a trip.
