Original artwork description
All started with an art challenge which was to interpret the carousel horse. The painting has been exhibited with some 50 others in the Haras of St Lô in Normandy, France.
It was really a challenge for me, not to say a struggle. What can I do with that? First it was a very good occasion to play with colors. Then I wanted something very energetic, as usual you would say. With that in mind, I started to paint and let go with the rest…
This carousel is the life. Colored, not too defined, in motion, free but framed. The life like cycles which go round and round endlessly or almost until the end of the tour or the next one. I made an allegory of life!
