Arnaud Cornet" Je m'en allais les poings dans mes poches crevées Mon paletot aussi devenait idéal "These verses have been with me since childhood, and I recite them to myself every time I go for a walk. I've been walking with my fists in my empty pockets for several decades now, daydreaming as a solitary stroller along city sidewalks or forest paths... It's my privilege, my good fortune and my joy. Strolling and looking. And more than Ulysses who retraces his steps, I prefer to wander alongside Abraham who leaves and never looks back, trusting only in the promise of a new land.I was the first to be surprised that my wandering paths led me from oil to ink.

And why not try the adventure in color? See how ochres, reds, greens and yellows come and go, how the mist dissipates to let the light shine through. And so, one morning," (...) while alone I dream at the window,And the shadows gather at the end of the corridor,Some Moorish city, dazzling, unheard of,Which, like a rocket in a blossoming spray,Tears this fog with its golden arrows!

The ink freezes in the instant. So, without regrets about the past or anxieties about the future, "his breath gives serenity to the sky (...) it's the light sound that reaches us "You may be surprised to discover that all the works presented are entitled "Landscapes" (followed by two numbers: "Paysages" and "Paysages").
