About this artwork

In this work treated with a spatula, the artist paints like a dream path that flows through his memory in the evening before his childhood memories disappear. When dreams come, the light transforms the paths of thought into clear rivers.

The painter-poet then wrote a sonnet:

Path in the sky frail monstrance smoke
Towards the distant horizons so soft and so strong
Where clumsy albatrosses defy death
In a final and vain derisory waltz

The… bruises that are like handkerchiefs to souls
Have the dark color of goodbyes and remorse
They bite the gold with their late shadows
Skies so beautiful that you would think they were covered in glory

Towards these fiery evenings stagger crazy artists
Drunk with wanting to erase sad worlds
Where dreams and childhood tales drown

« Staying in this delicate in between, located between form and the emotion that it gives birth to. »

Jean-Paul Schmitt is an award-winning French artist who is convinced that painting can confront mystery through form and light, as portrayed through methods other than surrealism and abstraction. Schmitt’s creative process begins with a preliminary study using watercolors, inks, pencils and acrylics. Once the color dynamics have been determined, he moves onto the final medium - thick oil paste on canvas.
