“GISELE XI” – 20” x 16” – Acrylic and Mixte Media on Canvas. This “pocket-sized” SAMSON is my latest creation. This is the ninth version of a character that I adore painting again and again. However, this time, she is more textured and her face is filled with small brush strokes of various pastel tones. Each time, she fills me with joy; I hope she conveys the same emotion to you. Texture: Plaster

GISÈLE & SAMUEL : 24” X 18” – Acrylic and mixed media on wood. As promised, here’s latest piece in my GISÈLE collection. This time, she is painted in a smaller format.

It belongs to the great explorer Samuel De Champlain. This historical letter to King Henri IV, preceded Champlain’s first sailing on The Saint-Lawrence River. Texture: Plaster and fabrics.
TOKYO : 72” X 72” - Acrylic and mixed media on canvas. This commissioned piece is the 4th version in my cow series. Its composition is similar to its three cousins, however it stands out with its unique colour choices, designs, patterns and personalized items. Because of the owner’s strong ties to Japan, I have entitled this painting: TOKYO. Notice it on the left ear. FRIDA KALHO’s life was very significant to this SAMSON collector.

Story says that it all started at RESTAURANT IDÉAL in Warwick, QC in the 1950’s. Bon appétit!! Background: Quebec’s chef Ricardo’s recipes, Montreal…
