New start

Shipyards (Granville, France) and Bernard shipyards [Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, France). It’s always a moving moment to approach an old fishing boat. We observe the living texture of “Seafaring Workers (#289)”

Many of my relatives and friends in France are part of a beautiful family of seafarers. They are the ones who welcomed me to a “Facing the Ocean (#298)”

There is something profoundly monumental in the slender silhouettes of the ships in dry dock. We realize the dynamism of the lines and the fluidity “On the Eve of a New Departure (#299)”

The title of this work is a play on words that evokes an unexpected encounter during one of the improvised strolls around Cherbourg. A person “Return of The Old Friends (#300)”

This work is part of a “New breath” series created from field studies collected at the Dubosc shipyards (Granville, France) and Bernard shipyards [Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue, France). “Gallic Blue (#301)”

This tempera and vinyl painting on MDF panel offers a bird’s eye view of the Duboscq shipyard in Granville. Seen from above, boats resemble migrating “Sea Siblings (#302)”
