Created with a Bic pen, this drawing is an ode to immediacy and to the expressive power of the sketch.
Each line is an attempt to seize the self-evidence before it fades — a celebration of living imperfection.

L'IMPORTANT C'EST LE CROQUIS (The Important Thing is the Ske

Created with a Bic pen, this sketch explores the spontaneity of gesture and the drifting of the mind.
Through a few free lines, I sought to convey the soft, meditative surrender inspired by water.

RÊVES D'EAU LE CROQUIS (Water Dreams – the sketch)

Through this Bic pen sketch, I capture the essence of the place without seeking to freeze it: simply the atmosphere, the depth, the living energy of the plants.
A work of quick and instinctive observation, preserving all the freshness of the first gaze.

LA SERRE LE CROQUIS (The Greenhouse Sketch)

In the spirit of my Chemin faisant series, this work explores the body's readiness to spring forward — the balance between inner tension and outward calm.
Through pen drawing, I seek to capture the soft tension of a suspended moment, on the verge of crossing from solid ground to water.
"The Time of the Divers" invites us to feel the ephemeral beauty of gestures in the making.

LE TEMPS DES PLONGEUSES (The Time of the Divers)

Through this Bic pen drawing, I offer an architectural reading of the space — without rigidity, allowing for natural breathing.
The lines sketch the composition of the environment, weaving together volumes, transparencies, and vegetal vitality.

LA SERRE LE PLAN (The Greenhouse Plan)

This Bic pen drawing explores the notion of landmarks: within the space of a sheet, between a few swift strokes, emerges the imprint of a fragile moment.
"The Plan" pays tribute to the sketch’s ability to condense the memory of a scene, a gesture, or a face into just a few seconds of pure attention.

RÊVES D'EAU LE PLAN (Water Dreams – The Plan) – 20 x 20 cm

This pen drawing explores the balance between architectural structure and village atmosphere. The play of shadows, textures, and lines emphasizes the living character of this ancient building while allowing space to breathe. A sensitive approach, true to the spirit of the place.
