Monday 7th August 2017 – Coloured sky

Some friends asked me to show how a picture rises and  why painting it’s interesting for me. Armed with paper, brush, spatulas, chalks and chalks I fought to paint this work. I was on a stage in front of 400 people. The title comes from a comment by a child who exclaimed: what a beautiful coloured sky! Children have always a simplicity that strikes me, from which I never stop learning. It was an evening full of questions, for example when I realized I wanted to be painter, or when I realized that an artwork is finished. For me an artwork is finished when there is life inside!
