In the footsteps
of Apple Tree 2, I experimented, outside, with melting
acrylic glazes in the misty Normandy rain.

Your work has such a romantic sadness about it. I can look
at one of your painting for an eternity. And for every second
that I ponder your work I overwhelmed by an array of emotions.
What inspires your subject matter?
Pierre: You are right to
think that there is more than just the esthetic of the flowers,
although it's a scene I' ll forever cherish. The fruit of the original sin is such a fascinating
story for me, that I purposefully left Miami in 2001 for my
dear Normandy, (the valley of River Epte), just to be in the
company of the old cider trees.
I set up my easel in the
cider-apple trees orchard, nearby an abandoned thousand year
old ruin (Neaufles St Martin). In such a setting, I dream of time immemorial and.
. . Eden.
