" One cannot admire at the same time moon,
snow and flowers " Japanese
Proverb
" Painting flowers meets the profound desire of grasping, in time,
a piece of life; of translating the emotion of a moment and extending
it to the canvas. Flowers, then, let surface the dreams of the soul,
for beyond their beauty, beyond the wonder they inspire, it is the
creative spirit of Nature that I see in them; this miracle always
renewed, of which I try to hold a fragment. " L.C.
