Julian,
j'aime vos petits commentaires autant que les oeuvres qu'ils accompagnent. Les pensées douces d'un ami inconnu...

I am enamored of your lively brushstrokes - the immediacy of your paint style is perfect for the subject matter - I so enjoy getting these in my inbox.

What a wonderful and intricate painting! Tangle of geometric planes,rupture of lines and outlines,backlightenings,shadows abruptly breaking the lights,lights pushing back the shadows,complementary colors singing,four soft pastel shutters,so vaporous...Heady!

Painter’s notes

The roads are deserted at midday in the fierce august heat. The wood pile on the left—prunings from the cherry trees—a reminder of the winter soon to come
