Portrait de Nicolas de Staël, 2013

My love affair with painting began when I was a teen reading the novels of Albert Camus published by Folio Gallimard. The covers were illustrated with the vividly coloured paintings of the French (Russian born) painter Nicolas de Staël. Here's a video showing my process creating his portrait.

Music: "Experience" by Ludovico Einaudi

Mon coup de coeur pour la peinture, je l'ai eu alors qu'adolescent je lisais les romans d'Albert Camus publiés chez Folio Gallimard. Le peintre français Nicolas de Staël illustrait les couvertures de ses toiles aux couleurs incendiaires. Voici une vidéo me montrant à la création de son portrait. http://www.mathieulaca.com/
