Some quotes:

"Painter but also architect, Martine Delaleuf knew how to introduce the structure and approach of architectural art and even the texture of materials in her paintings.
With pure lines and bright colors, she presents us with her brush portraits of elegant women full of self-confidence.
A style both very close to Matisse and an art of vibrant tones of beautiful effect."
Mr. YIN Fu - Director of the China Cultural Center in Paris

"It is from the drawing, following the thread of a guiding line, that she delicately ventures into color. Her women with curves highlighted in gold or purple sometimes bring to mind certain Roman goddesses painted on frescoes in some Italian villa.
When she leaves the backgrounds without material, the tone of the graphic elements takes on power and favors a resolutely contemporary aesthetic."
Patrice de la Perrière, ("Univers des Arts magazine)

"Delaleuf, painter-architect, spontaneously manages and perfection to deliver to us the natural, pure and straightforward beauty of these unknown women. Reminiscent of an architect's work, the entire composition is organized around the fundamental line, a true framework that determines the future of the work. Precise and vigorous, enhanced with touches of bold colors, it tirelessly and progressively moves toward the essential"
Claire d'Haussy (Univers des Arts)

"A very unique technique and skill.
Purity of line, elegance of composition, chromatic clarity. This painting requires "to be tasted slowly."
Alessandro Malmo, critico-experto Arte Moderna

"At once powerful and contained, sensual and mastered, we feel the ‘architect".
Georges-Nël Lambert, Archéologue

"The softness and timelessness of the characters are found facing the work of the solid matter. And this contrast gives to the work a singular force".
"The feminine presence, displaying its serenity, its frankness seems unassailable, unalterable as if it stood outside of time, outside of conflicts, outside of dangers".
Claire d'Haussy - art critic – "Univers des Arts"
