About The Artwork

As soon as she appeared in my workshop, I immediately understood the almost magical seductive qualities of the one who would become my model again for a whole summer. Her silhouette and her look, her freedom of look and her natural elegance, her whole character and her fiery temperament. She is standing in the doorway, her left hand resting on the gutter pipe. All my attention was also to make the bluish green of his tank top at its best. “Portrait of Yukina in jeans and green-blue tank top, a hand leaning against a zinc pipe from the workshop, with a beautiful tattoo on her bare right shoulder. For me who remained without seeing it for some time, her beauty seems to have further gained in brilliance by the splendid development of her maturity during her stay in Bangkok. - (Extract from my workshop journal of Wednesday May 5, 1982) Amber painting on canvas mounted on panel. Varnished and ready to hang. Signature on the back. Dès son apparition dans mon atelier, j’ai tout de suite compris les qualités de séduction quasi magique de celle qui allait redevenir mon modèle pendant tout un été. 
Sa silhouette et son regard, sa liberté d'allure et son élégance naturelle, son caractère entier et son tempérament ardent. Elle se tient debout dans l'embrasure de la porte, la main gauche appuyée sur le tuyau de la gouttière. Toute mon attention était aussi de rendre le vert bleuâtre de son débardeur à son meilleur niveau. “Portrait de Yukina en jeans et débardeur vert-bleu, une main appuyée contre un tuyau en zinc de l’atelier, avec un beau tatouage sur son épaule droite dénudée. Pour moi qui suis resté quelque temps sans la voir, sa beauté semble avoir encore gagné en éclat par le splendide épanouissement de sa maturité durant son séjour à Bangkok“. - (Extrait de mon journal de l’atelier du mercredi 5 mai 1982) Peinture à l’ambre sur toile marouflée sur panneau. Vernie et prête à accrocher. Signature au dos.

Born in 1948 in Belgium, Daniel Moline de Saint-Yon is a Belgian writer and portraitist living and working in the countryside near Spa. He graduated as an philosopher from FUNDP in Namur and lived as an artist 16 years in Japan (until 1990). His work has been regularly exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Belgium and Japan. Staying receptive to the history and the cultural interaction between Europe and Japan is one of his main concern. Moline’s creative process starts with sketches and drawing from life on the canvas. He paints mostly portraits (mainly women), spending a great deal of time with each subject, a rapport with his model being necessary to work. He tried several mediums but somehow always returns to amber as he finds it the ideal and enigmatic partner adapted to his needs of expression. This light oily substance of rare purity and beautiful transparency takes some days to dry out, but brightens tonnes and offers remarkable elasticity. Several thin layers of extra-fine paint will sustain for ever the ardour an bloom of color fields with strong visual impact. A patient process for a unique result ! Moline’s artistic career ( by Emmanuelle Dubuisson, in french) : « Peintre de figures, de portraits et de grandes compositions dans un style fortement graphique. Formation à Namur en Belgique avec Luc Perot, puis au Japon où il étudie la décoration et devient l'élève du Maître Ryû Oda. Il pratique ensuite la calligraphie avec le moine zen Tainin Yukimura dans un temple à Shobara. Lauréat en 1984 du concours du Kansaï à Kyoto, il participe à plusieurs expositions à Tokyo, Kyoto et Kobe, où il séjournera seize ans (1973-1990). Conjuguant les approches orientales et occidentales, sa démarche picturale sʼinscrit alors en de larges compositions volcaniques où trônent dʼépais personnages au graphisme vigoureux et dont lʼénergie vitale fait ressortir une violence expressive. Lʼœuvre porte aussi les traces dʼune calligraphie pratiquée chez les moines bouddhistes, qui se mêlent aux formes nues dans un foisonnement de taches de couleur, de courbes douces et dʼentrelacements surprenants. On y retrouve aussi des traits communs avec lʼœuvre du peintre japonais Shôhaku. Les sujets, liés au corps, souvent nus, évoquent accouchements, accouplements ou corps doubles, et allient, dans un mélange de tout et de néant, tendresse et cruauté. Comme si la violence de ces figures s'accompagnait toujours dʼune bienveillance retenue envers la vie.
