(French below – français plus bas) The last two months have been pretty busy – I feel like I keep repeating this as if it was some sort of excuse. It is not, not really. A lot of stuff happened in my life and I’m dealing with a lot of new things (adapting to my…
(French below – français plus bas) Didn’t you see? When you were commonly despicable, after they’d all been, the shadow growing under my narrowing eyes, my teeth clenching and my breath deepening. It was suddenly so cold and the silence was so heavy. I changed forever. My empty words, my dead stare, all the worlds…
(French below – français plus bas) I didn’t want to bother you with this series more than necessary as they are cheap small fun stuff that will look better all together, but as we are the 1st of September and as I’ve never been this close to Hogwarts (Scotland rocks)… Well, let me show you…
(French below – Français plus bas) Those who follow me on social media already know that I had a lot of fun this week. I spent five days learning the basics of screen printing with the amazing artist Diane Dawson at the GSA. We were lucky to be a class of only 6 – no…
(French below – français plus bas) A blank canvas. A (long) list of tracks. Preparing the composition, covering the carpet with large plastic bags, filing jars with water, ensuring brushes are clean. Kneeling in excitement – and also because I’ve got no chair to sit on while using my easel yet – bending over, scared…
(French below – Français plus bas) Second of the “Impossible Things” (and let’s not care about chronology), I was looking forward to this one. Despite his awfull rudeness (a characteristic I find unbearable in people), the Mad Hatter is one of the most interesting characters met by Alice for he speaks absolute nonsense and has…
(French below – français plus bas) It’s been a long time! Work pressure, tight rota, very short holiday in France… Anyway, I’m back on track and finished ‘Daughter 2’. Not a very original title, I agree, but as it is an order, this protrait is so personal I won’t spoil it with my stranger’s sensibility.…
(French Below – Français plus bas) Ages ago, my brother asked me for a tattoo design for his shoulder. He wanted a Holy Mary, and it would be linked to another tattoo on his chest. I confess it was a bit of a struggle, not only because I am not religious but also because I’m…
(French below – Français plus bas) Today, I completed my first official order. It is also the first work that I sell. It feels like an achievement, and it’s quite complimenting, but at the same time it’s weird to work on a picture I didn’t pick and didn’t feel for. That’s the challenge: filling this…
(French below – Français plus bas) She used to play with lace and nearly dead things, she liked boys, some girls too, she liked vine and she used to laugh a lot, prisonner of some other’s arms. She was pretty, and young, and dependent, she couldn’t care about grown-ups serious matters. Goddess of all joys…
