I
paint to add a bit of humor and color in my life and to
that of others. The light in my paintings allows the observer
to discover the beauty that one sometimes forgets! For
over 20 years, I have been exploring color, shape, and
emotion, as suggested by the picture. I
feel a great need to express myself through creation.
My works entail scenes where the subjects interact with
color and movement, created by a direct approach to the
subject matter. This approach allows for an unpredictable
process, which I favor throughout my production, since
from this unpredictability arises the desire to go further
visually and never stop exploring. Starting from an emotional
connection with the subject matter, my imagination translates
figuratively an idea, a moment, a texture.
Working
rapidly but carefully, I look for an equilibrium between
spontaneity and control. My methodology starts with a
certain randomness, an accident: warped canvass, dripping
paint; I play around with the material and I transfer
my feelings into it. Painting
remains for me the sphere where I feel the most comfortable.
I take delight in the moment of creation and it becomes
a kind of meditation. I travel throughout Quebec and the
United States attending exhibitions and shows. My life’s
emotions, life’s small pleasures saturated with
shattered colors and sensuality, that’s what the
observer will find in looking at my works.
The
wonder in front of the extraordinary dualism of contrasts
which manage to coexist! DANIEL
