"Last Snow"

D.M. Le Bris Copyright 2012

I love the colors in this one.
There is only a few lines in red.
I wanted to experiment with softer colors 
and put aside my favorite red.
I think it worked.

My Book "HIVA-OA In Search of Paul Gauguin"

My childhood dream was to visit Tahiti and Hiva-Oa,
where Paul Gauguin created such amazing masterpieces.
It took 40 years before I was able to accomplish that dream.
I am very fortunate that my dream came true.
 This is one page of the book I am currently working on.
During my 3 months stay in the Marquesas Islands, 
I wrote an artist journal talking about my daily experiences, 
while sketching, drawing and painting.

Auction #4
"Medieval City"

I always loved medieval cities.
As a French school girl my family and I
would visit old ramparts and castles during weekends and holidays.
It was a very special time for me.
I was such a dreamer, my imagination would always run wild.
When walking through the small streets
I always felt surrounded by mystery.
The old stones of the buildings seemed to have absorbed
all the past inhabitants' secrets,century after century.
What were those secrets?

I used watercolor, acrylic and oil pastel on watercolor paper.
The painting comes with a white mat which will fit into a 8"x10" frame.
