The wolf is coming...

Autumn is in the air... Yesterday started raining and there are plenty of earth and vegetal fragrances... It gives me the creeps (but not in a totally unpleasant way...) So, I've imagined I'm a white horse on a full moon night...

This is a 9" x 12" acrylic on cardboard High Art. Email me if interested.

Note 20 of September 2007: Sold. Replica could be comissioned.

Beautiful weather for portraits...

There is a close connection between the weather and my portraits: since I work them in the parks of the city I depend on beautiful weather to get models... these days the weather is quite fine, here, in Sherbrooke, almost summertime...

This is one portrait I'm proud of. I don't know exactly why, but I like it.

9" x 12" watercolor and some acrylic ink on Strathmore 300 g/140 lbs. watercolor paper.
I'll keep this one for my personal collection...

Rodrigue, the Cid

Another portrait - this time a bit older (the watercolor as well as the model) of a Sherbrooke inhabitant. An ex-professor at the University, it seems, a very picturesque figure I intitled "Rodrigue, the Cid" in honor of Charlton Heston's movie "The Cid" because the whole portrait had something, let say, "heroic"... Maybe more of a Don Quixotte but still nice...

9" x 12" acrylic ink & watercolor on Fabriano 300 g watercolor paper. Email me if you like this very, very much...

Melanie

That's one of the things I did last summer - in fact, a few days ago...

As usual, a 9" x 12" acrylic & watercolor on Strathmore acid free paper (300 g) and, also as usual, if interested, give me an email... I promise not to skin you alive...

Irises

I know it's very hard to paint Irises after Van Gogh, but, hey! I did my best...

This is a 9" x 12" acrylics and Watercolor on Strathmore acid free 300 g paper. If interested email me...

Note: Sorry, folks! Sold. The lady who bought this said she liked it more than the Van Gogh's Irises (another reason was that it wasn't THAT expensive, but shhh! that's a secret...)

Carine

A portrait sketch were I've try to render especially the magic blue eyes...

This is, as usual, a 9" x 12" acrylic ink & watercolor, on Fabriano 300 g acid free paper and if interested write me...

Just a sketch

I hope nobody will consider me mean... I'm not, usually... and I'm a large person, too...

OK, maybe not as large... Still, I got eyes and they are more cruel than myself. I'm kind of dangerous with a brush in my hand...

This is a 9" x 12 " watercolor sketch on Arches 300 g paper. If somebody is interested I'll sell for US$ 60...

Chloé

Poetic name, interesting face! Another of my "in the park portrait"... I spend on it probably between 35 and 45 minutes (maybe less... sometimes it depends on the time the "model" has).In a good day, I can make between 5 - 7-8 portraits... 2-3 are usually quite good, some reasonable good and one or two bad straight out...

This one is a 9" x 12" (I'm using pretty much the same format; some day, I hope, I'll be able to paint big, big canvases...) and, as usual, an acrylic ink & watercolor on Fabriano 300 g watercolor paper. Contact me if you like it so much as to spend some money on it...
