Senegalese painter
Alex, a Senegalese painter and decorator friend (major of fine arts in Dakar) told me: "To paint black beauty, you choose a pure brown and you add a little orange, a little black, a tear of purple and in the brilliance you spice up in raven blue, wheat ear yellow, waterfall green or saffron gold."
As a child, I was taken to see the film King Solomon's Mines. King Solomon's Mines is an American-British film from 1950. I was dumbfounded by the combat and the magnificence of the two Negro kings. I wondered why the silhouette of women did not enchant my gaze when people said that the woman was more beautiful than the man?! The world irritated me by telling me about the girls after whom I had to run (little clever vat!!!). I hated scouting, but I devoured trail signs. How beautiful the boys were in the illustrations!

My friends, the real ones, were always cute and younger than me and I neglected my studies.
Siesta in El Goela (Algeria) - July 1967
As a young man, I visited the Maghreb by hitchhiking; my attraction to boys bothered me and my contact with the African world crushed me and petrified me forever in contemplative admiration (not totally!? Anyway.)
Now with the circumstances of life, always a little libertine, a little artist, before I can do nothing, let me take you into the bliss of negritude with my "gaytitude". I've always had a stroke of the pencil, but left aside! Fortunately, I was always surrounded by beauty (in its relativity). Tourist guide especially in countries with a Muslim majority (Asia Minor and Africa), I liked to express to my nice (all) tourists what my eye felt.
Now retired and laryngectomee I take lessons with Marc Louise (pro and talented artist) in Bécherel in Brittany. I try to be rigorous in an enforceable anarchy that I'm not going to change at my age!
