Oil painting and collage.  Sides painted, no need for a frame.  Bird symbolizes migration.

Inspired by Paul Verlaine's Chanson d'automne.

When a sighing begins        
In the violins                                                                                                                               Of the autumn-song,
My heart is drowned
in the slow sound
Languorous and long.

Pale as with pain,                           
Breath fails me when                    
The hours toll deep.                        
My thoughts recover                     
The days that are over,                  
And I weep.                                     

And I go                                     
Where the winds know,              
Broken and brief,                          
To and fro,                                      
As the winds blow                       
A dead leaf.   



Les sanglots longs
Des violons
  De l'automne
Blessent mon coeur
D'une langueur
  Monotone. 

Tout suffocant
Et blême, quand
  Sonne l'heure,
Je me souviens
Des jours anciens
  Et je pleure

Et je m'en vais
Au vent mauvais
  Qui m'emporte
Deçà, delà,
Pareil à la
  feuille morte

Mireille Rolland, born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. After a study trip in Europe, a few years in Rome, Italy, she decides to choose France as second homeland. She now lives in the beautiful city of Lyon. Influenced by french and italian painting, her style is modern-figurative. To the technic inspired by Braque, she brings the unusual fineness of a geometry with softened angles mixed with the use of subtle colors. Her painting is an invitation to dream, to sensuality, a privileged moment of peace and serenity. Oil painting on canvas where the line remains as simple as possible and the festival of colors invites you to a very joyful celebration. And, as Georges Braque would say: "There is in art only one thing worthwhile; the one we can't explain....." Through the art of painting, my aim is to create in you an aesthetical emotion.. ....
