On the floor

White swallow, white swallow
With your sense of honor
Remind us to follow the lightest
Lightning path without
Losing the honor of the senses.

First I drew an ultra minimalist swallow on white watercolor paper with ink.

I painted with lightly colored, almost white, gouache all around.

The painted drawings have to be cut.

Then glued on a piece of cardboard. The white swallow is temporarily, neglectedly and fragilely framed.

Four species of tree were selected from my pretty large collection of small branches.

With carpenter glue, I glued the branches. Mini clamps are used to keep the wood in place.

Voilà!


Now we've got a white swallow drawing and gouache, framed with small branches picked on the floor of the city of Montreal.


Thank you for your interest in my work.
