Les fleurs et les fruits
Les fleurs et les fruits (the flowers and the fruits) is a decorative collection of nine oil paintings and prints inspired by the sweet and simple joys of life — ripe fruit, blooming flowers, and the warmth of summer. Each piece highlights color, texture, and abundance in nature.
A feeling of abundance, comfort, and sensory joy
This collection embodies the energy of summer - the most abundant season, where every field is buzzing with life and colour.
Remember, in this time, to take a moment to stop to smell the flowers, taste the sweet fruits, and take in the light around you.
Savor these moments, let them refuel you, and give you the energy you need for when the darker times return yet again.





Warm, familiar, and pleasurable
This collection celebrates nature not in its wild or untamed form, but as something familiar and close — cultivated, shared, and enjoyed. Whether it’s a branch heavy with ripe fruit or a tabletop set with petals and produce, the focus is on the sensory richness of everyday life. The collection invites the viewer to slow down, notice the colors around them, and reconnect with the small pleasures that mark the season.

A touch of French romance
The work draws on early 20th-century French art movements like Fauvism and Post-Impressionism, reflecting the bold color of Matisse and the symbolic, flattened forms of Gauguin. Subtle references to French language and culture — including handwritten text in some pieces — evoke a sense of intimacy and charm, tying the visuals to the romantic spirit of French still life and café culture.

The process
The paintings in this collection are all painted on wooden boards coated with a thick layer of crushed pumice rocks, to create a very unique texture - pumice is a kind of volcanic rock, that is created in eruptions - and a final layer of oil paint is gently painted on top of the pumice in neutral tones and simplistic imagery.
This collection consists of 14 original oil paintings.
