la-grand-sure-70x54.jpg (2013) Painting by Philippe Gonseth

As a child and as long as I can remember, I was fascinated by an oil painting of a landscape, by the texture of the brushstrokes and which recreate by Simple touches the different tones of nature! When I was 12, I received a box of oil paint from my grandmother. So I learned on my own. Furthermore, I drew a lot and quickly, with a black marker. Later, as a young adult, I started watercolor painting. I went from one to the other (oil, watercolor). Even more so and with the advice of my older brother, I switched to acrylics, which freed me up to quickly create a canvas! It must be said that in the family we draw and paint a lot! For the moment I like painting landscapes with my feelings and my colors! The abstract doesn't attract me even if I like realistic paintings treated in an abstract way, like Cézanne! And to this day still self-taught, perhaps I should start taking courses.....
