Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Acrylic, a paint that adapts

Acrylic paint and its design

Acrylic is a paint whose solvent is largely composed of water. It is made from a mixture of pigments and acrylic resin and dries by evaporation of the water it contains.

The American printers Leonard Bocour and Sam Golden invented a first version of acrylic paint and put it on sale in 1949. Subsequently, the chemist Henry Levinson created artistic acrylic paint in 1963, diluted in water. Painters such as Andy Warhol and David Hockney used it very quickly. In Mexico, it was also designed around 1950. Chemists, in collaboration with Mexican mural painters, developed it during the creation of frescoes on the facades of the University of Mexico.

Description
Acrylique sur toile – sables du monde (Provenance sables : Emirats arabes unis, Dubaï - Archipel des Seychelles, Plage Mahé - Kenya, Chemins de pistes). Couleurs naturelles des sables préservées comme dans chacune de mes compositions. Support bois et toile ajoutée sur le support afin d’accentuer un relief matériel et de créer un sens : l’arbre dans la nature, la nature dans l’arbre, s’inclure, se compléter, ne pas se dissocier ce qui est le cas dans notre monde trouble. Ces baobabs lancent leurs racines qui se transforment en chemins vers l’ailleurs comme une recherche d’espoir en un avenir meilleur pour eux et pour les hommes. Le baobab (l'arbre à l'envers) constitue à mon sens le symbole d’un double lien vital entre terre et ciel, macro et microcosme, yin yang. Branches et racines s’étirent et s’approchent au plus près du ciel et de ses astres et de la terre nourricière.
