"if it feels important, it probably is"
“Ink and watercolor do not allow me to edit...Because I can’t edit I’m forced to be more honest, because for me the first gesture, that first instinctual action is often the most authentic.”

Still in progress
my july giraffe sculpture is still a work in progress
and it's not because i've neglected it...
it's because it's been painted many layers, many colours
and each attempt turns out uglier than the last one!
i'll spare you the details,
back to white...
let's try again.
Lion's tail
also called Lion's Tail or Wild Dagga
i love their quirky shape against the evening sky.
PS: Lulu & Deb, ces photos sont pour vous ;)
