One Line Portrait Drawing

I'm Artist portraitist, therapist and traveler. Through the portraits “Les Yeux Dans Les Yeux” (Eye in Eye), I take the time to look at the person posed in front of me. Everything starts simply from two eyes that intersect. Constantly in the eye, I link or overlap different drawings of the model. In black & white, the line is uninterrupted. In color, I paint, trace, using alternately acrylic, pastel bold and dry, Indian ink, ballpoint pen, markers, … My hand takes the tools at hand to draw “what is”. I do not care about the result. Once portraits are made, I directly collect the feeling, the impact of a shared look. I notice that the unique features of the portrait reflect an invisible movement, sometimes an emotion, sometimes a story. I become aware of the powerful listening of the look. What is really revealed in this sacred space? Every line, every portrait, every word has its reason for being. They translate a form of accuracy, truth, authenticity. After having drawn “Les Yeux Dans Les Yeux” more than 900 people from here and elsewhere, I noticed through my drawings, a mystery, a softness and an intensity of this sharing moment.
