When I paint , I become like a little bird turning around to absorb the colours and the perfumes of nature to carry them to my painting. When I find the correct tones, I let my brush move on the canvas spontaneously in order to find its way toward a mysterious world.
To accentuate the effect of freedom I use soft, tender, rich and sensitive tones of acrylic and oil colours. To emphasize the richness of my subject, I put golden touches on last. My hand holds the brush in affection and mixes the colours like a light feather full of freedom.
And I believe; a painting begins as soon as it finishes.
