Abstraction and textures

Detached of the representation, the painting focuses on the contrast between colors and shape. Use of materials appeared concurrently with abstraction; both are fully tied to each other.  They provide volume and texture that catch the light while free forms echo the titles.

Subjects, sometimes violent and sometimes appeased, reflect the political tensions of this period (Arab spring) or internal tensions (painting style changing) and my desire to reach an appeased and more classic vision of painting.

Grey became one of the major colors of this period ending on the quasi monochrome of the Canadian autumn.
