Levitation<\/h1>\n

For centuries, artists used oil on prepared canvas to ensure better control of the color and shape.
But when I tried painting with acrylic and Flow enhancer on non-prepared canvas, I immediately felt attracted by the unexpected flow of the color and its modification before it dries – to the point that I became addicted to it. Why?
When controlling everything, painting feels like a monologue and inversely, here, I enjoy a dialogue with the color and the form.
My intervention on the surface is followed by an unexpected or partly unexpected reaction from the media and provokes in me another intervention and so on, until we both surrender to a delicate unique balance, created by both sides.
This dialogue is so thrilling and challenging, that it makes me feel in a constantly evolving state of improvisation.
The balance reached at some point is so delicate and fragile that it holds me in the air and makes me feel in levitation.<\/p>\n

I want to acknowledge the importance of my contact with young students for reaching this stage of my Art. Surprise and improvisation are a daily training in creativity: a never-ending live improvisation between teacher and student. This practice might be as addictive as the Flow enhancer acrylic technique on non-prepared canvas. Another Fragile and Delicate Levitation.<\/p>\n

You may say: This is Magic! Or this is addiction to reacting to every surprise with lightness and pleasurable excitement.<\/p>\n
