About the Expeditions of my sales: Shipping times: 5 working days after your order. Dear buyer, I want to bring you peace of mind regarding the shipping of your paint purchase. The protection of your canvas will be done in an optimum way. I pay particular attention to the preparation and shipping of your package. To do this, I work with a factory specializing in shipping works of art: manufacture-zanzibar south of Paris. This factory uses cardboard boxes and / or special woods, which are 100% recyclable. These packaging are designed to have very high security protection. The wedges are made with resistant foam. Depending on the destination to your country, I can ask the Zanzibar factory to make a special wooden crate. Once the packaging is complete, I assure you that the package will withstand the contingencies of transport to your door. -------------------------------------------------- --------------- Here is the story of my inspiration about this creation: 1970, I was 13 years old and we lived with my family in Normandy. It was in a countryside La Guéroulde, near the town of Breteuil sur Iton in the Eure. At that time, I played a lot of sports, which made me look boxy and sporty. From a physical point of view, I was well advanced in maturity. So, I was 18 rather than 13. That did not prevent me from living in real disarray. I had in mind my desperation and loneliness of not having a boy in love with me. Like a "boy" to whom I would like to prove my love, and share our secrets. As people said around me that I was rather a "handsome boy", so from time to time, I was invited to participate in "Booms" at the end of the day (understand youth parties.). In truth, in these evenings, the girls lacked riders to dance! As they guessed that with me, they risk nothing, so I was often invited. During one of these evenings, when I was quite bored, I was going to take a real musical "slap" like never before! A girl named Charlotte invited me to dance a "slow". At the start of a musical piece, I heard an organ “intro”, then the music, and finally the singer's voice which transported me! It was "A whiter shade of pale" by the group Procol Harum ... I had never heard it! Charlotte, who had her eyes closed, danced and stuck to my body, a lot… I didn't think the music sounded a bit like Bach on slow rock !!! With the breath of the soloist, I had enough to falter as I found it so good and moving. When the song was over, there was going to be an "encore". So Charlotte asked me to stay and dance again. The music was relaunched, with the lights dimmed, I was "high perched" in my emotions! Charlotte was pressed against me even more, then very tenderly she gave me several deep kisses on the mouth. It was nice, but I was thinking of Patrick, a friend of mine who I liked a lot (too bad, for me, he was straight…) with the music, in my turn, I thought I was with Patrick in front of me, so I 'kissed my date greedily, full on the mouth. The music was still there and Charlotte was pressed against me. Suddenly, I felt my cock harden. I was embarrassed. However, Charlotte hugged me even more! We danced like this without moving away from each other, while savoring these moments. But at the end of "A whiter shade of pale" in the shadow of the track, I fled the room! It was late on that balmy early summer night. While walking, I had recovered from my emotions… This girl knew how to kiss! Two days later, I bought the 45 rpm from Procol Harum: “A whiter shade of pale”. I listened to it again and again, thinking of Patrick, but also a little bit of Charlotte, whom I was never going to see again. 2021, I wanted to retrace with my canvas these moving and important moments of my past. Listening to "A whiter shade of pale" my heart is "pinched" with emotions. I tell myself that life goes by too quickly. It's like a chalk line on a blackboard. Then little by little, this line will simply fade. So my canvas, and "A whiter shade of pale" will remain like a trace of Charlotte, of me and of this past. She will testify that I was really alive!

Dominique Desag is a contemporary award-winning French artist. In his pictorial work, Desag strives to reproduce the power relationships between the colors that are born and the forms that welcome them. Moreover, by collecting these alchemies, the painter's attitude is to produce varied responses on the canvas, without forgetting to create aesthetic and colorful creations.

As material and medium, Desag uses acrylic, sometimes oil or pigments. He likes to work on canvas frames in square formats, ranging from 20x20 cm to 120x120 cm. Some works are carried out on wooden panels. He is also very fond of painting on paper.

Dominique Desag was born in 1957, in France. He is a Member of the Taylor Foundation.
