Three leaves Screen painted on linen canvas lined at the back with yellow fabric and finished with an elegant braid. H 63 inches W 17,30 inches. Pigments and oil on canvas. Focus on one of the oldest ornamental furniture in the world from the Land of the Rising Sun who developed this art to perfection. The themes offered by these partitions were quite varied: landscapes, animals, flowers, characters... Beyond pure aesthetics, the Japanese very quickly understood the practical interest of these shields of beauty which they adopted as partitions. In Europe in the 17th century, this furniture constituted a decisive stage in the partitioning of the spaces of the vast rooms of the large unheatable castles, where intrigues, mysteries and conspiracies took shape. In the middle of the Age of Enlightenment – a trend that was to be confirmed in the 19th century –, within a society that placed interior comfort and the refinement of decorations at the pinnacle, screens definitely occupied the terrain, as if they had always been part of the landscape. Exit Japonism and its complex codes. This mobile partition is now placed in front of the fireplace as a firewall or modestly protects the woman dressing or, better, undressing... Small models are even intended to be placed on pedestal tables. Visual artists are quickly seduced by the originality of this atypical medium. Beyond the simple triptych or quadriptych, it is a multidimensional work of painted panels embellishing an object that is altogether functional and decorative, but with an irresistible charm.

France
A very colourful glance: the drawing is my tool, the brush my fetish, the colour my spices. The spontaneity of the gesture comes from my experience with the trompe-l’oeil. A look fed from the nature, the palettes that have marked the desire to create. Soul colour: I am a painter fed by journeys of thousands of languages and colourful perspectives. I touch the colour, I feel it, I hear it springing up. I colour the ordinary, I illuminate faces, facades, skies. The ingredients come from architecture, from conceptual photography, an unusual angle, a look filled with meaning and history, there is the touch, the smell ... A colourful filter in the glance, with pigments and brushes, I share the colour of souls. The impact of the format of the portraits: Odile said “It's been several decades that I have been doing wall painting in large format, or very large, on all the continents and adapting to the constraints of decorative painting (theme, pictorial style, surface, light ...). Three years ago , I made a 360 square meters painting! To move to the frame of the canvas was quite a work of adaptation, to find the real format in which the gesture of my brush finds again its fluidity, its natural, an organic expression. The portrait is the ultimate painting exercise, the expression of a character in his intimacy, the architecture of a face or the movement of a body. I can put a whole world in my portraits, I start from an encounter, of a person, what it releases or the language of his hands ... and I build his universe (with or without him), or it can also be the atmosphere, the decor that brings me to the character”. "I start from a sketch in small format, well thought out and constructed. A well-structured drawing that gives a lot of assurance and freedom to embroider the materials and the decor. Then moving to canvas is pure adrenaline"!
