Maintaining tension between pencil and colour, to reach further. Playing with greys and subtle ocres, reds and blueish purples and watching them emerge on mixed surfaces. Daring to open spaces with the drawing, sketching elusive figures. Seeing painting as poetry. Landscapes, of course, with raging blue skies and ocre earth, seeking the unspeakable between the lines. Washed out supports and surfaces : sketches referencing the themes of the large format. Between grace and flamboyance, tension, movement, surprise. Revisiting the metaphor that turns the studio space into the inner image of the imagination. In a word, thinking with the hands. |
