After seeing the painting at a recent art exhibition in France, I requested if I might publish an image of the painting. I thank the artist for his agreement and dedication of the painting, Big Earth Mama II, pour Charalee.
French Surrealist Art – Patrick Dechavanne
As with all art and particularly with surrealist art, one should let the art speak for itself without art commentary. I dare say, however, for me the work appears appropriate for ongoing news stories of our changing planet. With that, I say no more and leave it to the viewers to enjoy the artist´s painting and provide their own interpretations.
