All in a Tumble

"Blogging is to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud."

– Andrew Sullivan

word of mouth

"Madret photographed me sitting on the edge of a bridge in Lisbon's botanical garden. A short while later, she sent me the Intuitive Portrait she built around that image. I've never before been featured in a piece of art this beautiful, this elaborate, and this personal. I now have it printed in large format and beautifully framed, hanging prominently in my home. It's a great conversation starter -- when people see it, they can't quite figure out if its a painting or a photograph or something else. It's fun to explain each time. This incredibly unique and personalized form of art and is now one of my most prized possessions. Thank you Madret!"

"I'm fascinated by Madret's work not only because of her aptitude to catch one's personality by watching heedfully but also her tact in dealing with such a unique setting. Her ability to picture the final portraiture only in her head before she even took one shot of the model is amazing. In my case it only took two short conversations before Madret asked me to start a project together. By the time I got to see my picture I almost couldn't believe my eyes. How was it possible to catch my character within a blink of an eye? And even more how to depicture? I literally felt - caught."

“When I asked Madeleine to portray me, I had no idea of the outcome. I was definitely curious. A little nervous, too. And anxious. How does she see me? Will I like what she sees?
Yes, she’d explained to me how she works, that she senses much more than sees the individual’s personality traits, that she combines her inner vision with metaphoric images, how she commits herself to looking for the right pictures to support her vision.
But how would I look like in the end?
I never would have thought that she is so gifted in revealing parts of my personality I myself never knew I had. She’s shown me a different way of looking at myself. And I do it proudly and happily.
Thank you Madeleine, for seeing me this way! You truly live intuitive portraiture.
