"Landscape", acrylic on canvas, 50X87 cm.

A mysterious urban (?) landscape with strong contrasts, created with thin layers of transparent acrylic. No textures (except the grain of the weave of the canvas), no impasto, lots of subtleties and glazes, traces of graphics in the transparencies, even in the dark tones. This painting is made with the technic of a watercolor applied to acrylic : the light is brought by the white of the canvas.

The main subject of this work is mysterious, even for me... Maybe an harbour, an industrial site, maybe in fire, or not... Who knows ? Delicate blue and greens, strong contrasts of shadow and light (fire ? clouds illuminated by the sunset ?).

Main colors are transparent : blue, brown, green, greyish blue, transparent dark brown, yellow and orange... The style is modern, contemporary, semi-abstract.

"A semi-abstract landscape where the representation is slightly jostled, enough to ask questions. Figurative markers ask more questions than they answer. Concrete elements could be interpreted : fire or clouds, water or road, harbour or oil extraction platform. But their association does not work according to classical standards. Reality is subtly destructured. The meaning is not asserted: do we see normal urban scene, or industrial accident?
This work can be hung in any position and each time a different meaning emerges. Here, the urban becomes nature, here, it's the other way round. Presented vertically, this painting speaks to us of something else.
Only the reference to ignition remains. Why does it remain? Unfathomable mystery to which no answer should be given. Art allows us to create worlds."

Painted with thin layers of transparent acrylic, without texture, this canvas is delivered signed on the front and back, with an invoice and a signed certificate of authenticity, flat packed. Shipment tracked with tracking number.

I was born in 1962. I'm a professional artist, based in France.in the Loire Valley. I live and work in Vouvray, (land of good white wines, sparkling or still, dry or sweet) in Touraine, in a very pretty troglodyte dwelling, typical of the Loire Valley. I studied Fine Arts at the Institute of Visual Arts in Orleans where I entered with a file of floral illustrations for fabrics and an experimental feature film in video. Finally, I studied printmaking, experimental cinema, and photography. But what I liked best, in cinema, was drawing storyboards! I obtained High School Art Diploma (DNSEP, equivalent to a Master's degree) in 1989. As I student in Fine Arts, I started studying lyrical singing at the Orléans Conservatory, right next to the IAV. I had studied solfège and piano as a child, which made it easier for me to resume my musical studies later on! I spent some time in harmony and composition classes, but I soon realised that music as a composer would not be my means of expression. In 1991, on the advice of my singing teacher, I had an audition at the Tours Opera House, and I was hired in the Professional Choir where I still sing! I am a gourmand of pictorial techniques and subjects. Everything is likely to interest me one day. The human figure, landscapes, seascapes, forests, and now, flowers. Schematically, to sum up, after having done very dark and serious works in my youth, the more I advance in life, the more I find myself with a pronounced taste for beauty, colour and life! I love to explore painting techniques. It is for me an endless journey, filled with the happiness of accomplishment, the enjoyment of inventiveness, creativity! I couldn't live without creating. Creation is my vital engine, the source of my energy. Giving matter to, giving birth to, making with my hands, imagining, letting my eyes dream. Creating … In my second profession, as a lyrical singer, I am an interpreter of music, scores, composers. I am one of the tools of conductors (like soloists, instrumentalists, all choristers). Whereas in my job as a painter and drawer, I am a CREATOR. But my lyrical singer job balances me and brings me the pleasure of being on stage, in performance, in front of spectators, singing and dancing as part of a team, doing sensitive and artistic collective work. On the other hand, the fine arts, for me, can only be practiced in the solitude of the studio.
