Full Article, more informations, and more pictures available here (Page en Anglais et en Français) ______________________________ [ENG] When I had the idea of painting this subject, I had named it "The Fall", a reference to some books I was thinking about at that time (Nietzsche: "The Joyful Wisdom", "Thus spoke Zarathustra" and Alain Damasio: "The WindWalkers"). I contacted a model to work from solid visual references. She perfectly embodied this "Fall", I knew she would feed the feeling I wanted to create. We met for “The Fall”and we fell... in love. I decided to change the title of this painting, I wished it to be a “Rise” for her. I dedicate it to Psyche, my model, my muse and my love. «Three metamorphoses of the spirit do I designate to you : how the spirit becometh a camel, the camel a lion, and the lion at last a child.1» _____________________________ 1 Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus spoke Zarathustra [FR] Quand j'ai eu l'idée de peindre ce sujet, je l'avais nommé «La Chute» (The Fall), une référence à certains livres auxquels je pensais à l'époque (Nietzsche: «Le Gai savoir», «Ainsi Parlait Zarathoustra» et Alain Damasio: «La horde du Contrevent"). J'ai contacté une modèle pour travailler à partir de références visuelles solides. Elle incarnait parfaitement cette «Chute», je savais qu'elle nourrirait le sentiment que je voulais créer. Nous nous sommes rencontrés pour "La Chute" et nous sommes tombés... amoureux. J'ai décidé de changer le titre de cette peinture, je souhaitais qu'il s'agisse d'une «Elévation» (The Rise) pour elle. Je le dédis à Psyché, mon modèle, ma muse et mon amour. «Je vais vous dire trois métamorphoses de l’esprit : comment l’esprit devient chameau, comment le chameau devient lion, et comment enfin le lion devient enfant.1» _____________________________ 1 Friedrich Nietzsche, Ainsi parlait Zarathoustra

Tidal drift. Graphite wash and watercolor. Might be a study for a proper painting- I haven’t decided yet.
