This large-scale work was inspired by the importance of the water element. According to common belief, the four elements that make up the universe are earth, fire, water and air. There is certainly no element as rich in symbolism as water, closely linked to birth and regeneration. Its purity and transparency blur the stains and give new life to individuals and objects. If it is the element of purification and protection par excellence, it is also the basic drink essential to life. Water can be fountain, source, river, river, torrent, sea ... It can give birth and can engulf; it refreshes, but it can also suffocate. By itself, it is able to evoke death as well as life, destruction and renewal, purification and sanctification. Technique: This work was carried out with the canvas on the ground with a very dilute acrylic paint which gives effects of watercolor type. Different layers of transparent colors give an impression of depth to the canvas. The artist also projected the painting to evoke the splashes on the dark rock. A great force, movement and vital energy emerge from this canvas.

Florence Laurent Minouflet (b. 1968) is a French painter living nearby the Mediterranean sea. Since infancy , art is her passion. Self-taught painter she has followed many workshops with renowned painters. She was trained in landscapes painting by Brian Blood, one of California’s most important "plein air" impressionist artists. She studied still lifes and live models drawing with Estelle Lacombe, seasonned local painter nearby Montpellier. She also practiced watercolor with one of the most famous French watercolorist and author, Maryse Demay. She has been part of a six years workshop with Marielle Dormoy, sculptor and painter. After confirming her skillset with realistic figuration paintings in her early years, she spent the last ten years creating and perfecting her own technique. A personal approach between surrealism and expressionism. The work is carried out in a first stage by freeing herself from reason, letting instinct give a great freedom to the gesture. In a second step, a reflection gives meaning to the shapes, colors and traces present. She deconstructs or reconstructs the composition, gives depth, works the nuances with glazing medium. While adding texture, color, and complexity to the painting, the subject appears from inconscient. Nature is one of her preferred inspiration , where she likes inviting the viewer for a moment of meditation. Acrylic painting is mostly used because it allows a wide range of effects : impasto, sgraffito, dilution like watercolor, glazing, splattering, palet knife...etc It can be combined with pastels, ink, oil paint. Florence Laurent likes to experiment with material effects and science of mixing colors. . She works with canvas, cardboard or wood as supports. Several layers are made of thin glazes from a limited palette. When painting, she is completely immersed in the process and feels like in a parallel space and time : a deep meditative experiment . She builds a reverberating relationship with the canvas, a push and pull of chance and control. VISIT MY WEB SITE www.ARTYFLO.COM ! _____________________________________________
