My little grandma passed away at the end of October 2024…
I wanted to pay her a final tribute in drawing, but I was so busy with various events that it was only now that I was able to get around to it. She was among the last of her generation at large family tables and was eager to join those who had left her long before.

My very sweet, very cute little granny, so frail that when the wind picked up, I sometimes wondered if you weren’t going to fly away.

So fly away, my little granny, let yourself be carried away by the wind and finally join them in heaven.
I imagine you now happy, celebrating with them, a big smile from ear to ear around a large table full of good food. You must be so happy to be by their side now.
I’m going to miss you.

I love you very much.

Happy New Year to all!

I hope you had a beautiful New Year’s Eve. 

Christmas now seems a little far away… 

Here are some watercolours and more, created at the end of the year. I share with you a few of them:

1. Lady with doggies

A3 watercolour painted for one of my grandmothers, fan of Louis XV’s period, Nicolas Le Floch etc.
As you know, my grandpa passed away in 2013. Cypris, the older dog died last November, so I thought it would be nice to have a painting bringing them all together.

2. My grandparents

Because they made me understand a long time ago that they would like me to draw their portrait.

3. My in-laws

Because they are always teasing each other nicely, to know who is more respectable of the two.

3. The daughter of a couple of friends
I was so overwhelmed last year that I didn’t send anything for the birth of the little one (bouh, shame on me!).
This is made from a template found on Pinterest that I adapted to her first name.
My only merit will have been to cut the details of the frame to the millimeter with my little hands.

May 2018 be creative for you!
