Original Artwork Painting, Acrylic / Watercolor / Pastel on Paper

Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Je m'intéresse aux destins tragiques des personnages des contes et de la mythologie.
Je fige l'instant de leur fatale transformation.
Méduse, punie par Athéna (parec qu'elle atait fière de ses cheveux, ou parce qu'elle fut violée par Poséïdon ?) et transformée en Gorgone, ses cheveux devenant des serpents et ses yeux pétrifiant qui la regarde.

Technique mixte sur papier.

The tragic story of Medusa.
Wondering about the tragic fates of the characters of fairy tales or mythology. Freeze the time of processing, fatal tipping.
Medusa, Athena punished (because she was beautiful and proud of his hair, or because she was raped by Poseidon?) and turned into a Gorgon, his hair becomes snakes and eyes petrify the viewer.
Mixed media on paper.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

Painting Pastel

Pastel is an instrument widely used in plastic arts. Taking the form of a colored plastic stick, it is composed of pigments, a filler (chalk or plaster) and a binder (gum arabic, oil, wax). We mainly distinguish fatty pastels (oil or wax), dry pastels, whether soft or hard. Invented in Europe at the end of the 15th century, this tool was very quickly used by great portrait painters of French royalty, such as Charles Le Brun, Rosalba Carriera, Jean Siméon Chardin or Maurice Quentin de La Tour, who will be considered the "Prince of pastellists", thanks to a method of fixation of which only he knew the secret.

Pastel

Drawing made with a colored stick. It consists of pigments, a charge and a binder. A distinction is made between dry pastels (soft or hard) and fatty pastels (oil or wax).

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

France

I am a professional painter. I live and work in Touraine.

I studied cinema and engraving at the Institut d'Arts Visuels d'Orléans, where I obtained the Higher National Diploma in Plastic Education in 1989, by presenting two short films. What I liked about cinema was drawing the storyboards ...

I work on different subjects, according to my inspirations: the nude, the landscape, the flowers and the forests (imaginary flowers or flowers of the memory, dream forests or fairy forests, it doesn't matter: the main thing is to express their poetry. ), I also sometimes walk around childhood, myths, legends ... I love to explore pictorial techniques: oil, acrylic, watercolor, drawing, collage, mixed media ...

I paint mainly from the imagination. Except when I indulge in hyperrealistic drawing with colored pencils, for which I need a model.

In recent years, I have had the pleasure of having buyers from all over the world who are interested in my works. My first overseas sale was to Australia. My works have the chance to travel everywhere!

Good visit !
