Technique of Calligraphy33 viewsIf you click twice on this detail of one of the FCP you will understand better the technique used in this series of small fast paintings.
The support background is masonite uniformly covered by matt White Acrylic. The calligraphic background is made with a rough brush and acrylic. When the acrylic background has dried the painting is enhanced by glossy lines in Black and Red having generally the same movement. The resulting effect which is obvious on the painting is not so obvious on the website gallery !
The contrast between the matt background and the glossy calligraphy is frequent in my paintings

Concentration28 viewsThis may represent a first step of concentration before challenging the problem
The inherent force of the mind is preparing before its expension
Note that the Background Calligraphy shows no rough lines

|

BBBOriginal38 viewsThis represents the first draft of BBB that I discovered by chance on a disquette ! It is interesting to see the progression of the work. The charcoal general forms are still there on the lower part of the painting but the high part has been already accentuated by the black callygraphic lines.
The gentleman in the back will be changed. A blue blanket will be added, the bottle and the glass will disappear. The hair will also be added...
|
|

45 viewsThis is the present stage (March 2007) of the time consuming BBB. The red calligraphic lines are barely visible. Gold reinforcements around the "gentleman" are also poorly reproduced by the photographic process.

As calm as a boa48 viewsThis should be the last painting of this series !
After the discovery of a new concept in Electrophysiology it is time to relax a little bit. However, in Biological Sciences we are never sure that a new concept will be really important for the treatment of patients. Now, I can relax about this concept. However, my problem is that I have now a new possibly important concept in mind. I have to work hard on ECG analysis to demonstrate its value !

Dancing with Ilfat142 viewsA more advance stage of the calligraphy. Light colors are seen on the background
The chacoal has been almost completely suppressed. The first calligraphic black lines will be the next step.

Egypt Escape at Night78 viewsThis is the counerpart of the Egypt escape during the day time already on the Website
The drawing of Moses has been made without lokking at the original !
At the beginning this painting was too dark and was not appropriate for photography
There is an amusing story to explain why I got the idea for that painting. I will tell you that later...

Fur Lady78 viewsThis small painting suggests the body of a woman quite exposed except the parts covered by the fur. It gives an impression of comfort as fur should do.

|

Husband and wife60 viewsHusband and wife are linked by a legal act. However, after a time which is highly variable from couple to couple the link between the two partner is getting less strong than during the initial period after wedding.
This unsatisfactory situation may lead to the rupture of the link, each one trying to build a new life with a different partner. Sometimes thats work !
At least for a while, but the same situation may occur again; I think that this is rather sad. I am fortunate to have the same wife after several decades...

|

I have got the solution !63 viewsThis is the phase of exhaltation when I was almost convinced that I discovered what I was looking for since many years !
|
|

Highly Improbable Physics51 viewsThis painting was previously called "The Maelstrom". However, it looked so sad that I wanted to do something to improve it. In addition it was no place for the calligraphic style. In a first step, I added the red signs in the center of the maelstrom. Then thinking of the next step it could have been simple to add more signs going to the periphery... However, as a joke I made a modification which will be for a physicist highly improbable !
|
|

Improbable Physics53 viewsThis painting was previously named "Maelstrom"
However, it was considered by my wife very dark and too sad !
I changed it to become an improbable phenomenon of physics that physicists will quickly recognise
Again I can put some humour in a painting (see also Tribute to Fautrier) !

Is the problem clear ?50 viewsAt this point it is important to be sure that all the elements of the problem are available and clear in the mind of the researcher. It is with all these elements in mind at the same time that the raisonning will construct a link between all these items necessary to reach the solution !
|
|

More difficult than expected !47 viewsThis painting may describe the approach phase when I was convinced that a solution was possible. I asked to collaborate all the most brillant electrophysiologists that I knew in France and in the USA. Especially my spiritual master Dr Albert Waldo who introduced the concept of "Entrainement" of a tachycardia demonstrating that it was a reentrant phenomenon. I was fascinated by this concept and thought about it for 3 years !
|
|

On the verge of discovery46 viewsIt was a phase in which during high concentration I had the feeling that I was close to the solution. This period was critical ! It was crucial to keep the brain working at this unique level. The simplest thing could have japadised the mental process. In that case it could need hours to reach again the same level of concentration...

Blessing84 viewsThis is one of the Californian series now finished. However, the photographic numeric process has added a slight pink color on most of the background which fits perfectly well with the painting. Therefore I will have to add physically this slight change on this painting. During my last visit in California in 05/08 I added some more work introducing a different blue color and an additional graph in the background. I am not sure if that was correct. I will discuss that later...

Raisonning46 viewsThis is the phase of intense concentration during 3 days when I was working each day with only a piece of paper and a pencil from 8:00 to 11:00 PM. The last day at 10:30 PM, I was almost convinced that the probem was solved. It took me a few more days to confirm that my reasoning was correct ! The red calligraphy on the brain can represent the work of this structure investigated by dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging !
|
|

The first step is to understand the problem !51 viewsOn this series of paintings called Fast Calligraphic Paintings (FCP) I will describe the process of discovering a new concept in cardiac Electrophysiology which has been classified as my second intellectual "Tour de force" (masterstroke) ! Here the artist is in the phase of concentration which in fact lasted for 3 years to deeply understand a concept already demonstrated in literature. This is partially described in the "Artist" menu tag and extensively described in "The Book".
|
|

Calm a long time after the solution55 viewsThis is another expression of calm a long time after the discovery of the electrophysiologic phenomenon of "Concealed entrainement" which I have classified as my second intellectual "tour de force" (masterstroke) !
Clicking twice on the picture in the Gallery gives a good view of this FCP of which the technique has been explained in more details on the "fragment" presented in another FCP.

Couple in a passionate embrace66 viewsThis is probably the most interesting painting of the Californian series.
There is an intense emotionnal relation between the two figures.
This impression is partially given by the movement of rotation isolating the couple from the rest of the world !

Typical Histology of ARVD58 viewsA full thickness of a cut in the Right ventricular free wall is illustrating the structure of tissue in ARVD
This image shows the style of modern presentation of scientific material during lectures in congresses

More than Incomplete Right Bundle Branch Block46 viewsThe artisitc value of this slide is based on the Blue background with a darker blue colour on top and bottom as compared to the middle. Note that the running title on top of the slide and the red line which are identical all over the presentation. Below the red line, the title of the chapter and in white the reason of this specific slide. The lower part is made by three pictures Magnetic Resonance Image and two ECGS , the extreme right is a blow up view of the interesting point stressing the difference of 25 milliseconds between some of the ECG Leads...

Ceramic Bird79 viewsThe Bird after the first burn is now "calligraphied". It is ready to receive the pigments. A part of the tail broke during manipulation probably in the oven !
