Original artwork description:

This painting is inspired by the park of the castle of Fontainebleau in France. The artist likes to mix reality and imagination, including in the landscape a character mixed with the vegetation and nature. The work thus incites one to reconnect, to take a break, to become one with a garden, with one's own garden. The canvas was made with acrylic on linen canvas on which was deposited a transparent gesso and thick mediums creating textures on the surface of the canvas. It is varnished and has a hanging system.

Linda Clerget is a French artist known internationally for her abstract and impressionist landscapes. She works on the creation of a personal language based on strong fundamentals from French impressionist painting.
Evocative and timeless, the energetic paintings by artist Linda Clerget speak to our most primordial selves — a deep connection that the artist is keen to foster. Deeply spiritual and intimate, the canvases are more than beautiful landscapes and abstract gestures. They are an integral part of the artist’s personal journey and an expression of her search for truth, beauty, and meaning in a world that often feels chaotic and cruel.

"In any case, I believe that this is a deep motivation and ambition. I think that art allows us to show another world, a deeper, timeless world which vibrates infinite strings in our minds. Like the shamans, I believe in the idea that our sleep, our intuitions and our creations all reveal strange, fascinating, mysterious things about life and its origins. I don’t have a precise definition, and I don’t look for one. That’s why I like painting: I’m able to reveal this feeling and subtly communicate it to others without them knowing it consciously."
