Me revoilà pour un événement qui aura lieu cette fois-ci à Paris !   <img alt="Resized_screenshot_20160811-201329-1471704103" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/343711/Resized_Screenshot_20160811-201329-1471704103.jpg" />   Retenez bien la date du<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1195228337189409/?notif_t=plan_user_associated&notif_id=1476190239859550" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank"> samedi 26 novembre 2016</a>. Ce sera l'occasion de se retrouver autour d'un verre au bar <a href="https://www.google.fr/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&rlz=1C5CHFA_enFR704FR704&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=le%20refuge%2072%20rue%20lamarck%2075018%20paris" target="_blank">le Refuge</a> (72 rue Lamarck, Paris 18) à partir de 18h30 à l'occasion de ma nouvelle exposition personnelle.   Cette exposition aura lieu du 26 novembre au 31 décembre 2016.   L'événement est organisé sous l'impulsion <a href="http://www.bar-bars.com/" target="_blank">du collectif Bar-bars</a> dont l'objectif est de revaloriser les bars en tant que lieu culturel de proximité, et grâce à l'aimable invitation de Nicolas et Jean-No, gérants du bar <a href="https://www.google.fr/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&rlz=1C5CHFA_enFR704FR704&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=le%20refuge%2072%20rue%20lamarck%2075018%20paris" target="_blank">le Refuge</a>. Merci beaucoup à eux !   N'hésitez pas à en parler autour de vous. Et venez Joyeux !

Il faut donc être vu partout et régulièrement ? Ça tombe bien mon agenda commence à se remplir petit à petit : - <a href="http://www.imprimerie-castet.fr/" target="_blank">L’imprimerie Castet</a>, que je remercie grandement pour leur excellent travail dans des délais pas toujours évidents, m’a récemment invité à participer à Qu’ARTier.    <img alt="Quartiers_du_9_au_17_septembre_2016-1470239318" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341310/quARTiers_du_9_au_17_septembre_2016-1470239318.jpg" />   Cet événement culturel organisé par <a href="http://www.larondedesquartiers.com/" target="_blank">la Ronde des quartiers</a> (association de commerçants et d'artisans bordelais de plus de 1000 adhérents) propose aux artistes de se montrer dans leurs locaux du 9 au 16 septembre 2016.   J'exposerais donc avec 4 autres artistes dans le hall d'entrée de l'imprimerie. Vernissage prévu le 15 septembre à partir de 17h.    <img alt="Logo_411_x_274_1-1471094643" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/342717/logo_411_x_274_1-1471094643.jpg" />   - D'anciens collègues désormais patrons <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.fr/Restaurant_Review-g187147-d3708412-Reviews-Le_Refuge-Paris_Ile_de_France.html" target="_blank">du Refuge</a> dans le 18ème à Paris m'ont eux aussi invité à participer à un événement culturel de quartier organisé par le collectif <a href="http://www.bar-bars.com/" target="_blank">Bar-Bars</a> dans leur établissement du 24 au 27 novembre 2016. Musique et ambiance garanties ! Comme quoi ça sert de travailler dans la restauration !   <img alt="Le-refuge-1470239872" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341312/le-refuge-1470239872.jpg" />   - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Atelier41-610345739044718/?fref=ts" target="_blank">L'Atelier 41</a>, avec qui je travaille régulièrement, m'a fait part de son intention d'organiser une exposition collective sur la base du petit format et d'un tarif unique au mois de Décembre 2016. Je vous donnerais plus de détails prochainement.   - Un ami peintre et sculpteur, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PHIL-108973819225279/?fref=ts" target="_blank">Phil</a>, expose tous les mois dans <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Phil-L-Atelier-Galerie/1775325166034508" target="_blank">son atelier rue de Pessac</a> à Bordeaux un artiste de son choix. J'y suis donc normalement prévu pour le mois de mars 2017.   Voilà pour le moment !

Hello hello ! How are going the holidays ?   <img alt="Giphy__1_-1470180314" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341176/giphy__1_-1470180314.gif" />   Here in Bordeaux the sun is shinny !   <img alt="Giphy-1470180382" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341177/giphy-1470180382.gif" />   Well here we are ! I checked today Art Luxembourg contest's results, and I received a few weeks ago Révélation Emérige's results. Unfortunately, I have been selected to neither contest.   <img alt="Giphy__2_-1470231736" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341178/giphy__2_-1470231736.gif" />   A hard one for my ego ! And you know how essential is the ego to his success ! For the moral too. Try so hard with no result doesn't help being confident in the future.   Let's be honest : I had built too much hopes up about some possible miracle to happen. It seems I really didn't want to work again in a restaurant.   <img alt="Giphy-2-1470182480" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341192/giphy-2-1470182480.gif" />   But frankly, let's be realistic, even if it's been a while I'm working very hard to earn my life with art, my situation wouldn't have completely changed overnight. Yep, I was dreaming a little bit...   <img alt="Giphy-1-1470182032" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341187/giphy-1-1470182032.gif" />   Artistic success doesn't happen like lightning strike, but is built with relentlessness. You have to be seen frequently everywhere.   So let's go back down to earth, and keep working hard ! Expect to see me again !   <img alt="Giphy-3-1470229547" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/341193/giphy-3-1470229547.gif" />   See ya !

<img alt="Yin-yang-1-1466410231" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331859/yin-yang-1-1466410231.jpg" />   Life is always more surprising !   <img alt="China_qigong-1466410052" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331857/china_qigong-1466410052.jpg" />   I had started last september Qi Gong and Tai Chi Chuan classes.   <img alt="Qigong-photo-1466412027" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331862/Qigong-Photo-1466412027.jpg" />   They are ancestrals martials practices based on respiration and balance, to restore and maintain your whole person in a good health.   <div class="embed"> <a href="https://media.giphy.com/media/OOZLyBA9Euq2I/giphy.gif" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://media.giphy.com/media/OOZLyBA9Euq2I/giphy.gif" style="max-width: 540px" /></a></div> During the rush phases I had, I could really realize how good this was for me. More : when I miss some lessons I could feel how bad it was not to keep practising.   <div class="embed"> <a href="https://media.giphy.com/media/ERYvVFgZQIlwI/giphy.gif" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://media.giphy.com/media/ERYvVFgZQIlwI/giphy.gif" style="max-width: 540px" /></a></div> Last time I came back to the class after a long absence, I showed them the Revelation Emerige booklet.   <img alt="22-1466413225" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331872/22-1466413225.jpg" />   What a surprise I had when they all told me that the exercises they had done while I was not were all based on taking root, anchorage to earth.   <img alt="24-1466413290" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331873/24-1466413290.jpg" /> It reminded me right away this client I had met at l'Atelier 36 a week earlier : " it's really Qi Gong your artwork... " I had not realized how much it was at the moment. Thought, I have been trying very hard only one thing this year : settle my artistic future basis.

<img alt="Giphy-1466424310" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331962/giphy-1466424310.gif" />   With the beautiful days comes also music. As a good warm up before painting, I practice the African drums.   <img alt="Giphy1-1466424472" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331963/giphy1-1466424472.gif" />   And cause I really like it, I started to work on some music projects with friends. <img alt="13133158_10207702795020257_4659248785202911682_n-1466423769" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331955/13133158_10207702795020257_4659248785202911682_n-1466423769.jpg" /> Mostly accompany <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Musicmale/timeline" target="_blank">DJ Malé</a> in clubs or for events, for the moment.   <div class="embed"> <div class="embed"> <div class="embed"> <div class="embed"> <div class="embed"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" class="embedly-embed" frameborder="0" height="500" scrolling="no" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fw.soundcloud.com%2Fplayer%2F%3Fvisual%3Dtrue%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fapi.soundcloud.com%252Fusers%252F181018807%26show_artwork%3Dtrue&wmode=opaque&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fmal-mal-902786495&image=http%3A%2F%2Fi1.sndcdn.com%2Favatars-000193280357-2f72tw-t500x500.jpg&key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&type=text%2Fhtml&schema=soundcloud" width="500"></iframe></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> If I could paint and play music as a living, I would have won it all  !   <div class="embed"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" class="embedly-embed" frameborder="0" height="304" scrolling="no" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fvideo%2Fembed%3Fvideo_id%3D1727970254123237&wmode=opaque&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FMusicmale%2Fvideos%2F1727970254123237%2F&image=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fv%2Ft15.0-10%2Fp128x128%2F12496823_1727974407456155_998891025_n.jpg%3Foh%3Dc4ac9fd729a5867d6f9ae32db0880a16%26oe%3D57E1598C&key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&type=text%2Fhtml&schema=facebook" width="540"></iframe></div> <div class="embed">  </div> Don't look further for your parties, we are the solution !   <div class="embed"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" class="embedly-embed" frameborder="0" height="304" scrolling="no" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fvideo%2Fembed%3Fvideo_id%3D1756988644554731&wmode=opaque&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FMusicmale%2Fvideos%2F1756988644554731%2F&image=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fv%2Ft15.0-10%2Fp128x128%2F12526062_1757010107885918_1865124641_n.jpg%3Foh%3D8a096d823e7c9c9b233b18753133dbf6%26oe%3D57EEE3E5&key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&type=text%2Fhtml&schema=facebook" width="540"></iframe></div> <div class="embed">  </div> <div class="embed"> (At la <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lacuevabordeaux/" target="_blank">Cueva</a> for the Music Celebration)</div> <div class="embed">  </div> <div class="embed"> See Ya !</div>

Especially with my official artistic status establishment comes all the legal-administrative-financial aspect. Paperworks...</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Giphy__6_-1466157611" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331054/giphy__6_-1466157611.gif" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> I'm quite well organised and usually, as boring as it can be, paperwork doesn't frighten me.</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Giphy__3_-1466158705" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331061/giphy__3_-1466158705.gif" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> But in this case, I don't know why but when I start looking at it, seeing the obligations, etc, it's like I was in front of some weird parchments full of impenetrables ideograms.</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Giphy__7_-1466158187" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331059/giphy__7_-1466158187.gif" />   </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> And there's no way I'm escaping this, because first of all giving a copy of my first bill will terminate my artistic status creation. Not to mention social insurance, be able to prove my salaries, cultural advantages, etc.</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Giphy__4_-1466159145" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331065/giphy__4_-1466159145.gif" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> I started then to look for someone to show and explain me all that (explications found on the web, though it is really simple, with beautiful drawing and all, is like chinese to me...).</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Giphy__5_-1466159673" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331074/giphy__5_-1466159673.gif" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> I had been advised some <a href="http://www.pajda.fr/" target="_blank">" legal partner of the creatives and the culture "</a> who immediately offered me an hour of diagnosis for only 50 €. " Why not " I said " but could you just tell me how much your clients generally spend into your legal training ? "</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:17.3347px;"> <img alt="Giphy__13_-1466251277" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/331514/giphy__13_-1466251277.gif" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:17.3347px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:17.3347px;"> Seems they couldn't give me the info.</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:17.3347px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:17.3347px;"> I don't despair though. I have no choice anyway !</div>

<div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> Since the the crowdfunding success, we started to work on my new website of course.   As I'm pretty challenging and perfectionist, let's say it : painstaking, and as my webmaster is like me, go all over the website global aesthetic again for it to be responsive and consistent was not that easy !   We got it done though !   <img alt="Maquette_accueil_sylvain-1466092599" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330888/maquette_accueil_Sylvain-1466092599.jpg" />   Now we are starting the web integration phase, meaning writing the code that will define the site architecture. A boring part for us, laymen, cause there is nothing to see but impenetrables characters.   <img alt="Cat_gorie_detail_contemplations-1466092660" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330889/cat_gorie_detail_contemplations-1466092660.jpg" /> </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> It also means that my webmaster will leave me in peace now. So I'll have now some free time to give to something else. And God knows I don't miss business !</div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> <img alt="Page_contact-1466092695" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330890/page_contact-1466092695.jpg" /></div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">  </div> <div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> I don't show it all to keep some surprise  ^^</div>

<div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"> You may not know it, but I don't only paint trees  !</div> <img alt="Killian-ronan-1466065069" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330643/Killian-Ronan-1466065069.jpg" />   I just finished a special commission : two sisters for a birthday !   <img alt="Manon-1466065881" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330648/Manon-1466065881.jpg" />   Transpose a personality on paper, such a beautiful challenge ! And an original gift. <img alt="Untitled17-1466066534" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330658/Untitled17-1466066534.jpg" /> From one or many pictures. <img alt="Yannick-1466065928" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330649/Yannick-1466065928.jpg" /> I can adopt different styles (uncluttered, colored, creative) according to your wishes, but resemblance will always be my priority. <img alt="Yannick_final-1466065966" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330651/Yannick_final-1466065966.jpg" /> From 50 to 150 euros the portrait + 10 euros shipping. Allow a month for it. I also realize other kind of orders. As an example here, integrating a painting in a special ambiance. <img alt="001-1466067385" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330664/001-1466067385.JPG" />   The idea was to bring some light on this dark wall and to prolongate the space. With the client we made a " window " in wich I painted a view of a train station, to remain consistent with the wall decoration style. <img alt="003-1466067418" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330666/003-1466067418.JPG" />   Or here, the client simply asked me a cauliflower.   <img alt="Choux-celia_mauloise-1466067677" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/330673/Choux-Celia_Mauloise-1466067677.jpg" /> I consider every proposal and adapt myself to the demand and budget, from 200 €. Allow a month for it.

<img alt="Giphy-1465653355" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/329053/giphy-1465653355.gif" />   Carried away by all this creativity and communication that took me after I had launched the crowdfunding, I ended loosing control, a little bit. I don't complain, cause the experience  was worth it. It took me a few days to land after that though.   <img alt="Giphy-1465838430" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/329746/giphy-1465838430.gif" />   Reality then came back at the double ! And if I still have much to do before feeling serene, well I can say that it looks quite promising ! Since the opening at l'Atelier 36, I sold a few artworks here and there, done some casual works, answer a comission, etc. All that put together, starts to look like something.   <img alt="Giphy-1465839583" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/329753/giphy-1465839583.gif" />   Of my program is now left my participation to <a href="https://www.luxembourgartprize.com/en/" target="_blank">Art Luxembourg</a>. As it's a big competition, I plan to realize a new artwork, quite big too.   <img alt="Img_20160608_141930-1465771769" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/329341/IMG_20160608_141930-1465771769.jpg" />   June is going to be busy !

I finally can announce, with a little delay though, that the last rewards left yesterday. Everybody should have his due next week.   <img alt="Giphy-1465576173" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/328845/giphy-1465576173.gif" />   Normally everything should go right.    <img alt="Giphy__1_-1465576219" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/328847/giphy__1_-1465576219.gif" />   If for any reason any mail couldn't reach its destination, just let me know.   <img alt="Giphy__2_-1465576342" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/328849/giphy__2_-1465576342.gif" />   Thanks to you all !

Last week took place the opening of my personal exhibition, the opportunity to make some beautiful pictures. Never hurts, does it ? <img alt="13214475_10153838381693143_2024400207_o-1463867610" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319257/13214475_10153838381693143_2024400207_o-1463867610.jpg" /> A really nice night, I met some interesting people, and had a few selling.  <img alt="13241525_10153838381773143_1488953452_o-1463867693" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319259/13241525_10153838381773143_1488953452_o-1463867693.jpg" /> During this night a friend offered me to come back the next week-end in Paris for a well paid casual job. I didn't hesitate too much, even if I didn't really know what it was about. Then this Friday while I met our employer Sandro, I had been informed he was the association <a href="http://www.studiozerogallery.com/studiozero_f.htm" target="_blank">Studiozero</a>'s president, which organize the contemporary art market <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LeVillageDesArtsSTUDIOZERO/" target="_blank">le village des arts</a>, among other thing. This market is taking place this week-end on <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Île_des_Impressionnistes" target="_blank">Chatou impressionist's island</a> ! And our mission was to bring and assemble the artists' tents. " What a funny coïncidence " I said, " I'm an artist ! " At the end of the day, he ended up offering me a free space to exhibit. Then I went to my gallery to pinch 3 paintings, plus some printings I had let there, found 2-3 stuff at my Mom's to settle it right, and I was done ! <img alt="20160521_145050-1463869693" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319263/20160521_145050-1463869693.jpg" /> <img alt="20160521_145108-1463869821" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319264/20160521_145108-1463869821.jpg" /> Not bad for an improvised one huh ? <img alt="20160521_145135-1463869850" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319265/20160521_145135-1463869850.jpg" /> A lovely weather, an idyllic setting, nice neighbors... perfect for a first contemporary art market. <img alt="20160521_150624-1463869882" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319266/20160521_150624-1463869882.jpg" /> Not many people came to be honest, especially as it's been pouring the whole Sunday. But during this two days I learn a bit more about the art markets functioning, and I sold enough to pay my train trip from Bordeaux. <img alt="20160521_150632-1463869912" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/319268/20160521_150632-1463869912.jpg" /> Two days of new contacts, in addition to getting along well with the president. And the desire to try it again. And to finish the week-end perfectly, after we had repacked 130 tents in the rain, Sandro rewarded our well done job by raising our salary, and offering me to work again together, as an artist this time. Such a profitable week-end ! Moral of the story : never underestimate a casual job potential...

This last weeks, I make every effort to get noticed (in case we would not have understood ^^ ).   <img alt="Giphy__6_-1462474689" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/312593/giphy__6_-1462474689.gif" />   Few days ago surfing the web, I heard about an online art contest.   <img alt="Giphy__5_-1462474761" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/312595/giphy__5_-1462474761.gif" />   Doesn't look like, but there is 750 € to win, personal and collective exhibitions, my paintings and an interview on their online gallery for six months.   <img alt="Giphy-1462474890" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/312597/giphy-1462474890.gif" />   Like many online contest, participant are submitted to a jury vote and to the public vote.   <img alt="Giphy__2_-1462475083" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/312600/giphy__2_-1462475083.gif" />   If you could take 5 min of your time to give your vote (to me for sure hehehe ) and contribute, one more time, to my success, I would be really grateful.   <img alt="Giphy__3_-1462475102" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/312601/giphy__3_-1462475102.gif" />   To do so, you don't even need to sign up !

Venez donc prendre un verre autour de L'EXPOSITION de SYLVAIN, pour fêter ensemble la réussite de notre collecte Kisskissbankbank, se rencontrer et vous remercier en personne, pis fêter le soleil, les saints de glaces, et bien sûr voir de plein de belles choses !     <img alt="Entre_chien_et_loup-framed-1462113458" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/310601/Entre_chien_et_loup-framed-1462113458.jpg" />   VERNISSAGE LE 13 MAI À 18H30 !   À l'Atelier 36 : 25 bis rue Gabriel Péri, 78800 HOUILLES.   (10 min à pieds depuis le RER A HOUILLES-CARRIÈRES SUR SEINE, 20 min depuis CHÂTELET ou 15 min depuis ST-LAZARE).   <img alt="Img_92141-1462124142" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/310675/IMG_92141-1462124142.jpg" />     Venez nombreux !! Au 13 mai !

It's been almost a week I'm in Paris.   <img alt="Giphy-1461505358" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307923/giphy-1461505358.gif" />     Next exhibition last adjustments, new artworks intense production, visits and thanks to family and friends.   I also took the advantage of the opportunity to make a cultural tour yesterday.   <img alt="Giphy__2_-1461506999" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307941/giphy__2_-1461506999.gif" />   We started with the Sainte Chapelle, where security is as strong as in airports. We almost couldn't get in because of a small swiss army knife !!!   <img alt="Giphy__1_-1461505570" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307925/giphy__1_-1461505570.gif" />   The visit, which will take you at the most half an hour, is quite expensive (10 €).   <img alt="Img_20160423_115344-1461505676" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307927/IMG_20160423_115344-1461505676.jpg" />   But the building restoration , splendid by the way no doubt about it, must have cost some arms and legs.   <img alt="Img_20160423_115758-1461505810" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307930/IMG_20160423_115758-1461505810.jpg" />   After we went to le Centre Pompidou to see an amazing exhibition about Paul Klee. I had seen his work many times during my life. Without knowing why his work always attracted me.   <img alt="Img_20160423_135659-1461505959" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307932/IMG_20160423_135659-1461505959.jpg" />   Must be his drawing, quite similar to comics, with a touch of humour.   <img alt="Archanger-1461506010" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307936/archanger-1461506010.jpeg" />   So much delicateness and poetry in his line, and an incredible colors mastery.   But mostly, I felt similarities with the master : precision and patience.   <img alt="Klee_diana-1461505990" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/307935/klee_diana-1461505990.jpg" />   This felling makes me want to bring some color into my last research, and with colors poetry. So I bought a book about Klee for my next artworks.   Can't wait to be back in Bordeaux to try it !   See you soon.

Well well here we are. Our Kisskissbankbank adventure is done. There is still much to do, but together we started something that, I’m sure of it, will bring me far. I’ll just have to keep the same course and speed !   What a month we had !!   <img alt="Giphy__7_-1460722523" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304652/giphy__7_-1460722523.gif" /> <img alt="Giphy__8_-1460722611" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304653/giphy__8_-1460722611.gif" /> <img alt="Giphy__9_-1460722679" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304654/giphy__9_-1460722679.gif" />   Anyway a big thank you to you all. Especially to my Mom whom worked so hard « begging around for her son », to my Dad who was so sorry not to be able to support me more (!!!), to my Tasmanian brother and to Nelly, to my brothers and his friends who’ve accompanied me in Bordeaux by night, to my brothers and sisters, to my family and my family’s family without whom this crowdfunding wouldn’t have succeeded, to my roommates who handled my moods, to all my mates who are following me until the beginning, to each of you for participating as you could. Thanks a lot for your generosity.   <img alt="Giphy__13_-1460723062" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304657/giphy__13_-1460723062.gif" /> <img alt="Giphy__10_-1460723130" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304659/giphy__10_-1460723130.gif" /> <img alt="Giphy__12_-1460723374" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/304664/giphy__12_-1460723374.gif" />     I’ll keep on publishing news on this web page, until my own news page is made.   See you soon.

After my turbulent week-end and some rest, I'm back on track !! The next deadline is May exhibition. I already have enough works to show, but I'd like to add new stuff.   During my last journey in south america, I started to draw squares on paper circles. Like that from time to time. I didn't know at the time what it will be used for, but it didn't matter : I liked it.   <img alt="10-1460567581" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303870/10-1460567581.jpg" />   Only problem is that the exhibition date is coming, and it would be nice ti find an idea for these circles and squares.   <img alt="20-1460567879" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303875/20-1460567879.jpg" />   Then 10 days ago, right between two urgencies, les <a href="http://www.journeesdesmetiersdart.fr/resultats?nr=75" target="_blank">Journées Européennes des Métiers d'Art</a> took place in Bordeaux. So we decided with my elder brother to visit some workshop.   <img alt="20160413_192318-1460568717" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303877/20160413_192318-1460568717.jpg" />   We mostly walked in the area les Chartrons, and there we found <a href="http://www.craft-and-co.fr" target="_blank">Craft and co</a>, a laser engraving workshop, using any material and mostly recycled ones. And there I saw the light again !!!   <img alt="Untitled-1-1460569154" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303881/Untitled-1-1460569154.jpg" />   But I won't tell it all now. To keep some surprise  ;)   We also have been into the workshop <a href="http://legourbi.fr" target="_blank">le Gourbi</a>, saw <a href="http://161degres.com/www.161degres.com/encre_dessin_ok.html#grid" target="_blank">Pascal Peris</a> <a href="http://161degres.com/www.161degres.com/encre_dessin_ok.html#grid" target="_blank">Surf Art</a> and <a href="http://portfolio.jeremiemazenq.com/gallery/deux-point-zero/" target="_blank">Jeremie Mazenq</a> amazing photograpies. We also visited the engraving associative workshop  <a href="http://lbe33.over-blog.com" target="_blank">La belle Estampe</a>. Mais je ne vous dévoile pas tout maintenant. Pour garder un peu de surprise ;)   <img alt="Imgp1450-1460570066" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303891/IMGP1450-1460570066.jpg" />     To see some artists sharing a work space, colaborate on common projects and organise group exhibition confirmed my intention to settle myself in a shared workshop in the center of Bordeaux.   When I was a student, many of my teachers advised me to pratice engraving. The more I progress with my art, the more I feel they were right.   I'll keep focused on my next exhibition and the second art contest <a href="https://www.luxembourgartprize.com/fr/" target="_blank">Art Luxembourg</a>, and then I'll dig into my new ideas.   See you soon for my next adventures !

There you go !! We reached the 4000 €. We even went over it  !!!   <img alt="Giphy__5_-1460481890" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303282/giphy__5_-1460481890.gif" />     Cause we can go over it ! Good for me !! Because as you might know, my career won't take up just by publishing my brand new website. I'm gonna keep on forging ahead, and make it bears fruits.   <img alt="Giphy__6_-1460482938" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/303286/giphy__6_-1460482938.gif" />   I can announce that my poster campaign paid off : today I've been found by an <a href="http://www.antredesarts.com" target="_blank">artists employment agency</a>, I also met <a href="http://www.midi30quatre.com" target="_blank">some people </a>who might collaborate with me later, and a marketing and communication advisor who will teach me to master communication tools some afternoon for the modest sum of 50 €.   As I said earlier, we can go over the initial goal. So don't hesitate, keep on sharing the project and talk about me. Thanks a lot !

I promised we'd see it big, I didn't lie ! This 4 last days, my printer, my accomplices and I have been quite busy ! We sticked up about 1500 drawings (A5), 40 posters (around 120x30 cm) and a bunch of my business cards in Bordeaux.   <img alt="Giphy__2_-1460387360" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302707/giphy__2_-1460387360.gif" /><img alt="Giphy__5_-1460387461" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302708/giphy__5_-1460387461.gif" /><img alt="Giphy__3_-1460387600" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302711/giphy__3_-1460387600.gif" />   I thought I could put my name over the whole city, but I didn't quite realize the size of it ! Bordeaux is actually a big city ! Not to mention that I waited a bit too long to start the job. Although, you can now find me in the areas of Chartrons, St Pierre, St Paul, St Michel, and le cours de l'Argonne.   <img alt="Quartiers-de-bordeaux-1460388086" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302715/Quartiers-de-Bordeaux-1460388086.png" />   Anyway, we had good fun and I do think we'll do it again. You can easily get caught up in this game !   <img alt="Img_17221_1_-1460388329" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302717/IMG_17221_1_-1460388329.jpg" />   Talking about game, on our way we were thinking my buddies and I that it could be funny to make a game around our collages. Like maybe a paper chase. It's still blur but you will hear about it soon, promised !   <img alt="Img_17211_1_-1460388484" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/302722/IMG_17211_1_-1460388484.jpg" />   To see all the pictures follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sylvain_artiste/" target="_blank">this link</a>.   A big thank you to my buddies whom followed me in the adventure wich wasn't riskless cause illegal ! A thousand times thank you !

As I told earlier, I’m also having an exhibition during May. It will take place at <a href="https://www.google.fr/maps/place/25+Rue+Gabriel+P%C3%A9ri,+78800+Houilles/@48.9253783,2.1868915,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x47e663f69a9ef5c1:0x8adf4b1fb606f863" target="_blank">l’Atelier 36</a>, 10 min from RER A Houilles-Carrières sur Seine station, itself 20 min from the center of Paris.     I’ll be showing many new works. And I’ll be there for the opening on the 13th of May. This would be a nice opportunity to toast, and to thank you in person.   <img alt="Giphy__4_-1460030200" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/301167/giphy__4_-1460030200.gif" />   I’ll remind it to you don’t worry.

The art contest Révélation Émérige highlighted something : I really must learn to speak about my work.   Bordeaux Montaigne faculty actually offers a master’s degree in fine arts investigations wich really could meet the target. The more I read its description, the more I see good reasons to take it : -       An accreditation of my prior artistic experiences, would be classy on my résumé. -       A beautiful degree, cause I must admit that I don’t have much apart from my baccalaureate… -       I’ll be doing the same, but as part of my training, so no much extra work -       I’ll be supported by competent people who could guide me well, instead of thinking all alone. -       I’ll have to colaborate with art professionals. What could be better for my art contact list ? -       Would be so good for my knowledge ! -       After that I’ll be able to develop beautiful speaches about my work and art in general. -       Studies, long hair, play guitar, smoke joints… I’ll feel young again !!! -       Always dreamed about it…   <img alt="Giphy__1_-1459962109" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/300878/giphy__1_-1459962109.gif" />

I have to admit it : I’m surrounded by true generous sponsors. Never doubted about it, but it always moves you seeing it for real.<o:p></o:p>     <img alt="Giphy-1459783096" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/299642/giphy-1459783096.gif" /> <o:p> </o:p> So thanks to you all, I can be generous in my turn !<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Because I can’t modify the rewards itself, you’ll find it just bellow : <o:p></o:p>   A really beautiful new reward shows up : the Révélation Émérige art contest booklet !

Holà you all,   I quite disappeared from the web lastly. Usually happens when a deadline is about to expire. So you don't see it's total panic inside !!   <img alt="Giphy__1_-1459511427" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/298364/giphy__1_-1459511427.gif" />   You laugh but it's a bit true though ! Cause once the crowdfunding was launched, I only had 2 weeks to complete my admission file for the first art competition <a href="http://revelations-emerige.com" target="_blank">Révélations Émérige</a>.    I had been thinking about it : I had good stuff to show, but no speech to prove my work consistency and depth.   I usually like to let people make their own idea. Then we can discuss about it, and there it becomes interesting. But this time I would have no choice but to do it.   Moreover the fund did start well. Normal would you say, it's family ! Yeah but you see they're not joking ! They're doing it for real. They do have faith in me. I'm under big pressure now ! Can't fail !   Then finally a night (about a week ago), stucked with the absolute nonsense phrases I could have written until there, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, I saw the light.   <img alt="Giphy-1459511190" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/298362/giphy-1459511190.gif" />   And I swear this is how felt it ! I had found the underlying theme.   After that it's been easy : picture it, make an outline, assemble the puzzle, line it up, adjust the contrasts, fix the mistakes, send to print, fix others mistakes, do it again and well, went out without a hitch !   <img alt="Emerige2-1459512662" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/298381/Emerige2-1459512662.gif" />   I play the wise guy now but what a relief being done with it !   <img alt="Page14-1459528151" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/298564/page14-1459528151.jpg" />   Now we just have to wait for them to open the file and be dazzled !
