Lea's portrait

To me, Léa, you are somebody just exceptional, and I am at loss for words to describe you to someone else, as well as I have known you for about approximately 9 or 8 years, so I will try to describe you through a painting.

I want you to imagine all that I may say, ok?

Well, are you ready?

Imagine you, an attractive girl, in a long white dress, leaning back against a tree. This tree has intermingling branches. Imagine the wind flying through your hair. A light breeze. You are at the top of a cliff. You hear the rocking of the sea, just in front of you, at the bottom of this cliff. There is the sun, with a light purple cloud curtain.

If I had to paint you, I would represent you with your long white dress, because you are pure and whiteness evokes freedom and wisdom. . In the top-right-hand-corner, I would draw the sun with some clouds because you are also stressed a lot. I will draw the rough sea behind you and the branches which represent stress too.

I would place you behind a tree because you are a little bit shy, and the tree can evoke nature (who ignores that you are fond of environment?). And at the bottom, I would draw an ear. It is a good representation because you are a trustworthy girl. The cliff represents power, and freedom, because it is dizzy. I also will draw the seagulls flying because it is as well a sign of freedom.

Now, I am going to talk about the colours that I will use for my painting which is starting to look like something.

If I had to paint you, I would use blue (sky, sea), because it stands for optimism and you are always optimistic.

I will also use green (grass, tree) because you are an ecologist, you love nature and flowers.

My painting will be my favourite and the most beautiful I have ever painted because this is you. I want everybody who sees my painting to say “Oh my god, what a beautiful painting! Just like an artist!!”

That’s how you look to me.
