This painting, “Juste se poser sur un caillou du chaos et contempler toute cette beauté se fondre en elle…” (Just sit on a stone of chaos and contemplate all this beauty melting into it.), is an original artwork created with extra-fine acrylic (Sennelier, Charvin, Liquitex) and gold leaves.

First, observe. Sometimes to the point of stubbornness, always, no matter, whether it is the world around me, scents, a loving whisper, a fabric, a fit of laughter, a reminiscence, a melody or you or the one who passes by, who enters the workshop, … I love using my gaze, my feelings and my emotions as a prism that collects the precious essence of all these observations and gives birth to the “beauty” as it is built and refined over the years in my inner self.
