Dancer Ilfat41 viewsThis spanish Dancing woman is turning and showing her upskirt. Probably discovering beautiful legs ! During the phase of multiple painting restauration I decided to put a black colour around several paintings
This colour was able to move to the border of the painting giving a better effect as I have also discussed in another painting. Therefore a new photograph has to be taken and displayed on the site.

Dancer I37 viewsThe original, painted in 1965 was not satisfactory and was repainted to increase the feeling of rotation during dance.
This new photograph also includes a black edge around the support of conglomarated wood increasing the presentation of the painting.
This painting was later copied and modified to give birth to the Oriental Dancer in 2006.
Stored in a psychiatric surgery in Paris. As there is (as usual) no signature on this painting, any new consultant entering the room returns the painting to look for the name of the painter !
I was said that it was non exception after three years of display !

Jump of the Star Dancer28 viewsThis was the original drawing that I made in the beginning of year 2005. Here we can see the calligraphy in black lines superimposed on the Charcoal drawing. It indicates the way the artist is sometimes proceeding in his most elaborated elaborated work going from a sketch on a piece of paper, its reproduction in charcoal on the support, the Callygraphy. In this example the background was not considered as important !

Oriental Dancer60 viewsIt is a tradition from the middle east to invite a young female dancer at the end of a good meal with friends.
Sometimes the dancer has to keep a sword on her head during the dance.
The point of major interest is to see the extremely suggestive "belly dancing".
This is the final version of the Oriental Dancer.

Violin player36 viewsWoman violonist player seen at the "Theatre des Champs Elysees, Paris) during a performance dedicated to Georgia (Russia)
Her style was very impressive and suggested to me the russian style of playing violin such as David Oistrakh
During the break I was briefly introduced to the man considered as the most prominant contemporary russian painter.
This man looked as his paintings : a strong personality in every respect !
