Sovereign, flowers enchant my days, and my garden, my house... they charm me with their beauty, their shapes, their colors, quietly developing, right up to the velvet or silk petals, their elegant and often surprising pistils...

Beautiful but also daring: they refine their voluptuousness to play with the whole little world of reproduction, without suspicion... geniuses of deception, seductresses...

Virtuosos of corruption and disguise, they adorn themselves with all their assets...

Their goal is to spread their nectar… to bewitch anyone, and become a little paradise for a butterfly that desires this nectar, for the bee or the bird…

The softness of their petals… such a pleasure…

Still, their scents, their colors attract... they can become sticky in the hope that a small living being will move their pollen around... ants... little mice... another form of life that will play the sexual function for them...

It's nature... they have fun with it, no judgment or morality... that's how it is...

They have been part of our messages of love for centuries: the floral code is imbued with poetry and protects the shy...

Send zinnias: I'm thinking of you! Bright daffodils: Love me!

Blueberries: constancy…. But buttercups cry out ingratitude,

Aloe, sorrow. Petunias: never despair.

A bouquet of peonies: feeling shy,

Burgundy roses: what unconscious beauty! And my fiery love...

Snowdrops: hope.

Each flower is a garden, they are light, beauty, hope, sweetness, and until their end, the flourishing dance of life. They charm me, bewitch me, enchant me….

Their floral forms, glimpsed in the night, illuminate our paths through a garden of memories... and when we let our imaginations wander, we hear the flowers whisper some of life's most ancient secrets...

I like to use a bright palette with strong, cheerful colors, with a subtle play between opacity / transparency, material effects with a knife, figurative and abstract.

The homage to Monet allows me to share my personal universe, mixed with influences of artists that I particularly like: B. Morisot, E Manet, V. Van Gogh, P. Gauguin et contemporains N. de Staël, JP Riopelle, Joan Mitchell, P. Soulages, G. Richter...
