In the obscure depths of winter, we see joyful scenes inspired by Bruegel the Elder: winter landscapes, snowball fights, skaters on icy rivers … We cross paths with animals defended by a proud knight brandishing her sword, we discover chain mail that resembles scales, a sweet owl watching over her nest, the brown silhouette of trees wearing a white coat of snow that also covers village roofs or faded, dried hydrangeas awaiting their rebirth in the spring. Pine tree needles create an abstract motif. A lovely palette of warm, cool neutrals : chestnuts, browns, rain gray, wave blue, sage green and abyss blue with a touch of white and yellow tips to enhance everything.

Everything begins with a large Bonnard summertime painting or the Charleston home and workshop of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant in the same period where their colorful inspiration invades the walls, fireplaces and furniture. Abundant colors, flowers, foliage, a standard poodle, a large vase with a bouquet, a peacock hiding in the bushes, geometric rugs, matching checks. We imagine a fertile garden and a decorative, light mood in a place where the living is easy. A feast of cheerful, not-too-bright colors, slightly bleached by the light like a fresco: fresh Pink, Absinthe green, Arctic blue, Rosewood, Flesh and Moss green.

And ode to femininity, a landscape of water, fire and a stormy sky, a powerful femininity inspired by Gravettian Venuses of the Paleolithic age, the Nanas of Niki de Saint Phalle or the sketches of Louise Bourgeois. We cross paths with fiery thistles, a tender, interlaced, feminine softness, a patchwork of daisies, female genitals hidden in an abstract motif, budding crocuses or a soft-lined motif inspired by the amazing Hilma af Klint. A range of grays, warm browns, sepia and caramel intensified by a strong raspberry surrounded by faded pinks and reds.
