“Toulouse – La Grave from the Bazacle in Summer” is a soft pastel drawing on Pastelmat paper, created directly from life in full sunlight.

This artwork belongs to a summer series painted en plein air, in the spirit of the Impressionists, to capture the fleeting moment, the vibration of the water, the reflections of the sky, and the lively atmosphere of the Toulouse riverbanks.

By working on the spot, the artist seizes the shifting light, the warm nuances of the Garonne, and the immediate emotion of the landscape. This serial approach, reminiscent of Claude Monet, reflects a deep immersion in nature and a profound connection with place. A luminous and sensitive pastel that celebrates colour, texture, and the quiet poetry of the real.
