Corsica
A sweet little drawing.
I love how the trees are surrounded by the ruins, the little windmill...
This is I believe from Corsica.
Talking
From Madagascar. It did not matter whether native or colonial, rich or poor, Monty made endering and quirky all his subjects. He loved to show I feel what made us all so much the same one human race.

A favorite. Perhaps a study for a painting, or for some illustration work for a news paper ; as he always did work of that type to scrape a living.

people - quick sketches
My grandfather loved to sketch people, he always did so with delicate humour and quirkiness. He was constantly observing and drawing all around him. My grandmother used to say he would use any kind of paper which made it difficult to preserve his work. Some time it was what ever paper had been wraping the meat or cake she brought in!

About Me
- Kipik
- I have 2 main passions: Painting & fencing and 1 guiding path: Buddhism. These fill my life along with work and my wonderful friends. But I am also crazy about many other things! I've been living in Canada for +20 years but I was born and raised in France and Martinique... I am inspired by Canada: a magnificent land and culture, and by Haida art, Inuit art, Russian Art of the communist era, the 60's and art by Klee and many others... In my Art I use fine watercolours, inks, pencils and what ever I find! ...I paint on Arches watercolour papers, drift wood, wood panels... I try to communicate the hidden connection between the natural world and the human world.
