Clair de Lune
21 3/4" x 19"
Gouache on paper
Statement:
An abiding interest in the paper theaters of the 19th century lead me to create this glimpse into an intimate drama of the natural world.

"...Ils n'ont pas l'air de croire à leur bonheur
Et leur chanson se mêle au clair de lune,

Au calme clair de lune triste et beau,
Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres..."

                                    -Paul Verlaine
