A collection of paintings

Here is a collection of paintings I've done. As I was making each one I stopped thinking,  I let the creativity take over. I let loose. I let it happen.

Let It Happen

420 x 594 mm

Acrylic on paper

My first painting after dropping out of fashion school. It took me months to start it. There's is nothing more intimidating than a blank canvas. I finally let go and let it happen.

02

The Tired Devil

420 x 594 mm

Acrylic and Marker on paper

For this painting I imagined an extremely tired and run down devil, so bored from "burning for all eternity" that he has become deeply depressed.

Une forêt sombre

297 x 420 mm

Acrylic and Oil paint on canvas

 

The forest behind middle school. One of the first places where I didn't feel safe. Students were always up to no good and I was one of them. Smoking, fighting and skipping class. The Art of Peer Pressure.

Painting of a memory

550 x 460 mm

Acrylic on canvas

After spending an evening in Asakusa, a neighbourhood in Tokyo filled with small artisanal shops, I was inspired by the colours and compositions of the store front decorations. The next day I made this painting trying to recreate a storefront from memory.
