I have not been present on this blog for a long time. My job required me to travel our country and I could see its extreme diversity. From east to west, from south to north, I was (and still is) admiring all these landscapes … Burgundy to the Massif Central, the Cevennes to the Pyrenees, the Basque country, the Atlantic coast. ..this is a long series of sites, natural areas, cities that pass before our eyes. It is also a moment of sharing with those you meet … So, I have come across different ways of constuire, cultivate and live in its landscape …
How to draw, it also has been amended because these landscapes so diverse, if not all draw the same way: light (pale yellow in the Alps, Provence orange, blue to the Atlantic) sharpens perception, different landscape structures oblige to change the look.
So, I was confronted by the approach of these landscapes my own experience …
I devoted myself, at first, to work only the line then quickly light has emerged, color was naturally there …
