Two seasons in the Alps
The paintings in this series evoke both feelings of solitude and reunion with nature, after isolating myself in the Ecrins mountains in the Alps during the pandemic.

During the pandemic, painting enabled me to overcome the anxiety and feelings of loneliness, the restriction of freedom.
In this piece from 2021, I combined recycled paper, useless show programs and tickets, acrylic paint and felt-tip pens.The circular line delimits a protected space in which the imagination can develop. Hope is totally present, in a clearer horizon, in the small splashes that fly up to the sky.

In the rain
“In the rain” and “Rain forest” express the different sensations you have while walking in the rain, the smell of humus, the freshness, the particular vibrancy of colours, the reflections of water. After weeks of lockdown, it was so good to get out and about again.
Acrylics, monoprint, oil pastels.
Whatever the season, water is everywhere IN THE ALPS, from the tumultuous turquoise waters of the Veneon, to the sinuous brook in a secret valley.

Mountain skies
Have you ever been amazed by the perfection of the sky in the mountains? In these paintings, inspired by mountain skies, especially at night, I explore compositions in which indigo is the star color, combined with subtle beiges and soft greens, or more intense colors like pink and terracotta, a surprising combination that makes the blue dance.
