It is through painting that I highlight bits of myself, what I feel, emotions, sensations, small moments, that are important to us, that mark us and make us cross in thought.
They carry in our imagination shapes, shadows of what is going on around them, lives that intersect, in a brushstroke, in a transparency full of emotions. Pictorially assuming our state of mind, where brown and brick  are present, the roasted yellow and the blues in the immensity of chance, the white in the assumed cut, to convey calm and reflection, then the red, intense suffered, leaving as beginning of something strong and decisive.
Crossed lives, which transport us to a nostalgia, often imaginary, but very present.
