I certainly felt more confident this year and I decided to try something new to my style of painting. That is to work the sunset, the shadow and the notion of close and far. Simple characters and a subtle play of colors. Above all, I wanted to work the amazing  phtalo blue in a sunset contrast.

I’m taking part in the 8th annual Staff and Patient Exhibition at the Royal Brompton Hospital. I have been a patient in this hospital since 2007 and I have met wonderful people among the medical staff and the patients.

The exhibition is from November 2011 to January 2012

I took me years to come to that day and it’s really satisfying. I takes courage to present your work to the public but I’m glad I took this step.

I have always been impressed and amazed at all the weight african women can carry on their head. I also found great elegance in their walk and their clothing !

And if you think there is more to give than to be given, you are absolutely right !
