About The Artwork

Part of a series of four small washes on canvas dominated by sepia-toned indelible ink, "E-On", made in December 2023. Openings of white, light green and light red light in the dark ink suggest windows into the distance. Executed with broad brushes, leaving plenty of room for chance and randomness. The blue and red are ink, while the light green is an acrylic wash. The grain of the canvas can be seen in the flatness, giving light despite the deep brown of the sepia. Above, a projection of salt on the still-wet wash provides a similar effect. (The name "E-On" is simply the reverse of the "No-E" canvas, made at the same time *** Fait partie d'une série de quatre petits lavis sur toile à dominante d'encre indélébile sépia, "E-On", faite en décembre 2023. Les ouvertures de lumière, blanche, vert clair et rouge clair, ménagées dans l'encre foncée, suggèrent des sortes de fenêtres vers le lointain. Exécuté avec des pinceaux larges, en laissant une large place au hasard et à l'aléatoire. Le bleu et le rouge sont de l'encre, tandis que le vert clair est un lavis d'acrylique. On perçoit le grain de la toile dans l'aplat, ce qui donne de la lumière, malgré le brun profond du sépia. En haut, une projection de sel sur le lavis encore mouillé fournit un effet analogue. (le nom "E-On" est simplement l'inverse de la toile "No-E", faite en même temps)

- Photo: Naples, Italy, March 2019 - Born April 1947, married, 2 children, 5 grand children. - Graduated in economics, then swiss banker in private banking from 1974 to 2007. - Started drawing in travel sketchbooks (self taught) at the age of 48 in 1995, and painting much later in 2007 at the age of 60. - Former "urban sketcher", from 2020, writer of historical novels. My desire to paint comes from the interest for expressing something aesthetic or gaudy, for finding an unstable equilibrium, for experimenting with different approaches, for renewal, testing, trying. Even though I’ve done mini-series, I don’t like to stick to one repetitive process. To me, painting is a dialogue between control and letting go and abstraction is of particular interest because it allows us to to express things that would otherwise escape our senses. It’s still a large field, even though everything is supposed to have already been made.
