Two bisquines. Calm sea. Tempera on canvas 50 × 70 cm — 2024

Two bisquines advance on an almost motionless sea, bathed in the golden light of the last hours of the day.

In this maritime scene, movement seems suspended. The sails capture the light, while the sea stretches out into an open, calm, and silent space. The work does not simply seek to represent two sailboats: it attempts to capture a moment of respite, when time seems to slow down and the horizon becomes a space for contemplation .

The painting combines a figurative approach with freer passages, reminiscent of Impressionist sensibility. The materials and various interventions on the surface gradually construct the image, balancing precise silhouettes, shimmering light, and simplified forms.

Bisquines, traditional sailing boats emblematic of the maritime heritage of the English Channel and Brittany, carry a special dimension here: they evoke both the memory of the sea, travel and resilience in the face of the elements .

The warm and luminous palette contrasts with the tranquility of the water. Nothing is spectacular; everything is played out in restraint, in the light that glides on the sails and in the silent dialogue between the boats and the horizon.

Two bisquines. Calm sea is an invitation to slow down your gaze and rediscover that rare feeling of peaceful immensity that one experiences in the face of the sea.

An original work intended for those seeking a contemporary, sensitive, and timeless maritime painting that transcends the mere representation of a landscape.
