This painting is made from a photograph I took of a building that looked like an old factory, on the south part of the Thames: South Lambeth
This painting is not only about a city that changes, it's also a tribute to all men who build houses and flats they probably never have enough money to live in.
A tribute to all people working early in the morning, having hard jobs for other people lives.
Londres 07/2018
Une ville qui change constamment, qui construit, se renouvelle toujours.
Mais ce tableau n'est pas seulement un tableau d'architecture qui représente une ville qui change, c'est surtout un hommage à tous ces hommes qui construisent des immeubles, des maisons qu'ils ne pourront sans doute jamais s'offrir. Un hommage à tous ceux qui font des métiers durs, qui se lèvent tôt pour permettre aux autres de vivre mieux.

Valérie Le Meur is a contemporary French painter whose artistic journey is deeply influenced by her birth in the vibrant month of August in the heart of Paris, France. Currently residing and creating in the suburbs of Paris, Valérie's art is a reflection of the interplay between light and color, which is intrinsically tied to the sensory experiences of her birth month.
Figurative painting is a natural magnetism for Valérie, drawing her into the realm of visual storytelling. Yet, she remains open to the ever-enticing pathways of artistic discovery. Within her works, light and colors take center stage, playing a pivotal role in shaping the emotional narratives she conveys.
Valérie Le Meur's artistic philosophy aligns with the wisdom of Leonard Cohen, who once said, "There's a crack in everything. That's where the light gets in." She cherishes these imperfections, particularly in the context of human beings, for she possesses a genuine fondness for people. Her paintings capture individuals in the midst of their actions, offering a glimpse into the world of raw, unfiltered emotion. Precision and accuracy are secondary concerns; Valérie occasionally toys with proportions, distorting them intentionally. This approach, she believes, enables her to better convey the genuine emotions and feelings that originate from the heart.
Valérie's artistic muses encompass a wide range of influences. She draws inspiration from Romantic artists such as Delacroix, who masterfully conveyed emotions, life, and the very essence of human existence. Her admiration extends to Sorolla, the brilliant Spanish master of light, whose work has left an indelible mark on her own approach to luminosity.
While Valérie Le Meur's art often features scenes of joyous holiday celebrations, replete with families and children, she is not one to shy away from addressing the stark realities of society. Her canvas delves into topics like hooliganism and war, unveiling the hidden layers of violence that persist beneath the surface. Valérie possesses a unique ability to penetrate the human soul and reveal the pain, sadness, and terrors that often go unnoticed, showcasing the profound depths of human emotions and the stark specter of loneliness.
