Last week in New York J Louis Bootcamp

I was very lucky to attend a 4 days workshop with J Louis in New York. It was rich, intense and so inspiring! Here are my two paintings done during the workshop with all the precious advices of J Louis. https://www.jlouis.co/

Paintings still in progress

So hard to decide when a painting is finished…. Still working on these one …

Sketches on Mylar

Back to the studio, these days I experiment oil on Mylar – transparent paper (small pieces about 20/25 cm). Quick sketches and colours (colours used for few paintings still in progress…. )

playing with selfportrait…

Sketches on paper with pencil, ink and watercolourOil painting cardboard and canevas

Danse Butô

Last year I discovered Butô, a Japanese dance theatre. Since then I have been looking at many photographies and videos. I feel moved by slowly motion of white bodies in strange or absurd environments. Still under way…(Photos: Sankaï Juku Japanese company and Ko Murobushi dancer 1947 – 2015)

Trees

Inspired by walking in Canadian forest and paintings from the AGO: small oil painting on cardboard. Presqu’île Provincial Park, Ontario (Photos David Dickel)

Thames path

During my two years in London 2017/2018, I regularly walked along the Thames path between Putney and Battersea power station in wintertime. Mist, light, mud, sand, clouds; all those different grey’s nuances were a source of inspiration. I took a lot of pictures and translated my impressions in mixed media drawings and oil paintings.
