Printemps et renouveau.
Voici une aquarelle de ces dernières semaines, c'est une composition recherchant la totale simplicité.
Le printemps arrive pour nous tous, ce sera le moment de reconnecter avec la nature qui se réveille et d'observer le renouveau. Il se produira peut-être aussi en nous-mêmes!

Feuilles d'automne
Cet automne j'ai fait des promenades dans la forêt. J'ai été saisie par la beauté des feuilles qui ont changé lentement de couleur pour devenir jaunes, oranges, rouges, dorées et toutes sortes de bruns. Avec la pluie ces couleurs devenaient encore plus intenses. Je n'ai pas résisté et j'ai collecté diverses feuilles de toutes formes et couleurs et je les ai mises à sécher dans des gros livres. J'ai aussi fait des photos pour pouvoir conserver un souvenir des couleurs vives.
J'ai fait une sélection des feuilles que j'ai arrangé pour peindre un ensemble de feuilles d'automne. Voici donc le processus de travail pour cette oeuvre.
J'ai adopté un nouvel style de travail qui fait plus de place au dessin:
Ensuite, c'est la peinture aquarelle, feuille par feuille, dans un rythme lent. Les couleurs rendent ce sujet très intéressant et amusant à peindre.

Black flowers
There is a tango called "Flores Negras"(Julio De Caro) Black Flowers that I like so much. I like the name itself that inspired meas well. I have always been thinking "I want to paint black flowers,
I imagine them beautiful and mysterious". The flowers on this painting are not all black but that was the inspiration.

Painting and Traveling
I have been traveling in the United States for a almost two months now, and I am not painting as much as I usually do. But I have seen so many beautiful things and wonderful landscapes.

And spring flowers…
| Tulip Festival near Seattle |
… everywhere!
| Seattle. |
| Chicago |
I always like going to the parks and botanical gardens to see the flowers of the moment in the cities that I visit.
This is a californian poppy that inspired the painting of this post.
I don't always have enough space to work, but sometimes I get lucky and I have a beautiful place with a big table.

Blossomed trees
With the arrival of the Spring I get a fever of blossomed trees. Every
year I try to do a few paintings on this subject. They are so beautiful but
it’s difficult to paint because the flowers are small and the colours are so
delicate that it’s really hard to touch nature’s perfection with the painting.
Anyway I try.
This painting was an opportunity to change the technique a little bit: now I use a pen to do the drawing first.
Then I paint the flowers with watercolours as usual.
This is the result without background. I haven’t planned the composition too much this time, I just lay it out as I paint based on different drawings I’ve done.
Finally I add the background using an ink pen (Pentel) and normal ink as well.
