Description
This still life captures the freshness of a fruity composition with remarkable technical precision. Pastel allows for a velvety rendering of the surfaces and a subtle management of contrasts.
A watermelon dominates the scene. Its green rind, striated with light shades, contrasts with the intense red flesh of an open slice.
Beside it, bunches of white grapes bring a touch of light and lightness. A few fleshy fruits complete the ensemble, placed on a subtle support.
The artist plays with volumes and color saturation to create a tangible relief. The neutral background, in grayish tones, accentuates the realism of the elements and focuses the gaze on the material.
The careful execution highlights a taste for meticulous observation. Every detail, from the black seeds to the reflections on the grape grains, is treated with finesse.
This composition dated 2019 illustrates a mastery of pastel and a keen sense of visual balance. The whole rests on a dark surface which anchors the fruits in space.
Presentation
I am a self-taught pastel artist based in Rennes and a member of the *Société des Peintres de Montagne* (Society of Mountain Painters). A hospitality school graduate, I still work in the restaurant industry. I have loved drawing since childhood. My passion for pastels truly took hold following the International Pastel Exhibition in Brittany in 2022. I began by painting seascapes and then still lifes using pastel pencils on small-format paper. I subsequently turned to mountain landscapes, which have now become my primary source of inspiration. I enjoy painting high peaks using luminous, delicate colors and precise linework—a style that earned me a feature in *Pratique des Arts* magazine in April 2023. That same year, I was honored to win the Public's Choice Award at the *Journée des Arts* (Arts Day) in Rennes' Thabor Park.
