… On the white canvas the blue drips are like a waterfall. James and the model talked a lot about Africa during the painting session and James had in mind the wonderful Victoria Falls. James says that this painting is lush. He imagines a powerful and lush nature, visible in the accumulation of colors on the canvas. He imagines a territory where you can get lost…« Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, luxe, calme et volupté. » Charles Baudelaire
The artistic result is stunning, expressing the strenght and beauty of Africa!
