This painting was created in November, the month of Thanksgiving in the USA. Although this holiday has no traditional significance for me, I can identify very well with the idea of gratitude towards nature, all its bounty and beauty and life itself. In this sense, the painting is an ode to nature. Various natural materials have found their way into the painting - ashes from our fireplace by the stream, soil from a forests in Switzerland, minerals from the south of France, marble dust....
Due to its materiality and colors, the painting radiates earthiness and tranquillity.
