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 takes courage to present your work to the public but I’m glad I took this step.

I think it’s one of the greatest wish for anybody. Things may not be what they appear.

The price of hard work .

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 !

… is all that was.

Not being able to hold on to his mask, the monster revealed his true self. But life goes on and one finds solace in the fact that love works in mysterious ways and hope brings wonders to one’s soul and one’s life ;) .

I painted this for my daughter who loves shopping, even though her drive is much less than it used to be ;) .

The balance is the key.

I have tried but could not. It takes more than a will to be able to carry things on your head. It is also the most economical way of carrying things around.

One should always.

Some voices are like chants that carry you to a far away land where wisdom showers you with all its wonders.
