A single suspended moment at the water's edge — bare branches tracing their shadows across a still river surface, golden reeds caught between seasons. Time do not move here. It simply is.
Painted during an art residency at chateau Cerisay in the village of Saint-Cenéri-le-Gérei in Bretagne,this work captures the quiet poetry of a riverbank wrapped in morning mist.Thin, translucent layers build depth in the misty background, while more saturated strokes bring the foreground grass to life. Through this interplay of glazing and delicate blending, the painting preserve this moment.Soft, muted tones dissolve the contours of trees and water, creating atmosphere where stillness feels almost sacred. A patch of vivid green grass anchors the scene, contrasting with the gentle greys and blues that drift across the surface of the river. The oil painting reflets one moment of my personal observation, my feelings.
