Vannes For Vastness of the Morbihan Gulf - Part 1


Greetings Everyone!
My next stop was in Vannes where I visited my other brother.

I really love the Morbihan Gulf.
Many islands are being sheltered in this natural habour. And because this gulf is located in the south of Brittany, there is a micro-climate in the area.
Not to mention that the light in the summer is wonderful there, a paradise where the sea, the land and the sky are meeting on and off in front of your eyes.
 This place has been described as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

Also Brittany is known for its mystery, for its fairies, korrigans and all sort of other mischievous creatures; Celtic legends like King Arthur and Merlin were born in this region.
 This place has been described as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

I wanted to capture that beauty, the sort of energies and mystery that exist between the light/air and the sea when all elements meet in the summer...

This time around I was able to find a art materials shop near where my brother lives. I bought a few canvases and started to get working.
Here is the triptych that I made with acrylic paint.
I find it is so much easier to feel creative when I let myself being carried by what I love. It can be a place, a person, a pet, an object. We don't even need to find inspiration. It is already there. Our love for a place is our inspiration.

In my case, when I find beauty in something, i find it easier keep it and make it my fuel to move forward in my art and in myself.

But bare in mind that this is an abstract painting...


Don't hesitate to make a comment!
Until next time all...
