Decorative tips from the artist:
I always choose much more sober settings for 2 reasons: the idea is to project people into this setting, as you do when you sell a house, you depersonalize. So fairly bland colors for the colors of the paintings to stand out. And never colors (except small accents) of the painting in the decor, always to highlight it.
 
And as I paint very modern, I often choose the contrast of the oldest or hyper refined decor. The idea is to put the repro in the spotlight. So if similar decor, we miss it.
 
Interpretation of the work by the artist:
(La Grande) HERMINE was the main ship of Jacques Cartier's second voyage to present-day Quebec.  My basic idea:  the  travel  ...waves ! 
It is the journey undertaken by computer communications and which binds us wherever we are on this fabulous blue ball that we urgently need to green again. 
And from this extraordinary technology are also born pollutions: words too quickly spat out that hurt, unhealthy confrontations between cultures, obsolete satellites abandoned in orbit, etc. 
Because nothing is perfect, in
space you can clearly see the tarnished links (purplish) and the debris of the satellites (purple). 
HERMINE is the journey we make via the waves and the traces it leaves, too!
