Every day starts with a country walk, a way to get some air and admire the surroundings, forever changing forever beautiful.
I love this view – the contrast of the fields with the sky. Today the fog unwrapped texture – I feel inspired to explore it further with my brushes and paint…I can see the sketching taking shape in my head. Closing my eyes I am running towards my treasure chest, picking my canvas, laying out the colours I will be using…opening my eyes I am thinking: bring on Sunday.
If I can’t get to the sea it will have to come to me – painting again feels good, it has been too long.
In one of our excursions onto the numerous cycle paths of the Ile de Ré island I took a series of pictures …time to put it down on canvas me think…
Des photos des photos toujours des photos…la peinture c’est bien aussi…Trousse Chemise vu de Loix sur la piste cyclable…et moi toujours à la bourre avec mon appareil evidemment…
September is possibly one of my favorite months here in Charente Maritime – the light is so mesmerizing, the vegetation looking vulnerable and tired yet beautiful. Feeling ready to start painting this country…see if you can find a preview above…
