CONTINUATION AND END OF THE INNER WHEEL ORLEANS EXHIBITION

GREENHOUSES OF THE GARDEN OF PLANTS IN ORLEANS

We had, as always, a perfect organization and a warm welcome from the members of this Innerwheel Orleans section.   

The weather was very good, which made it possible to enjoy the opening outside and also to welcome the public of the plant garden. A large audience and connoisseurs gathered around the glass of friendship and during that time, an artist was performing on a large canvas outside.

During these 3 days, it was a real pleasure to find many familiar faces : it was a bit like coming home.

After 11 years in Orléans, it is quite normal to have forged many ties. Thank you all for your encouragement, your questions about my work, your sharing in your different workshops, our exchanges around your readings, your respective lives…

INSTALLATION IN GREENHOUSES

I had planned to bring a large canvas of 100×70 to better illustrate my recent work. However, the condition of my ankles did not allow me to come by car. So I had come long before the exhibition and I had dropped these small formats at a friend’s but I had to go back by train.

So I presented 8 30×30 formats around 2 themes: 

koi carp

cherry blossoms

RETURN TO LYON

It was the first time I had done all my public transit trips for an exhibition.

Finally, I admit that it was less tiring and quite comfortable. I rediscover the TER and it’s just a bit longer than a car ride but taking the time to enjoy the countryside is a real pleasure. 

And then, my luggage was unloaded from 5 small formats, which made my return easy!
