Frank Girard
"My House by the River", Humans in Nature Pigment Chinese Ink Landscape Drawing

2021

About the Item

Named "My House by the River", this drawing by the masterful artist Frank Girard was created with Chinese ink, pigments, and watercolors on Arches paper. When creating large drawings, the artist uses this high-quality paper specially made for engraving or watercolors since it does not curl when he moistens it to make the background with pigment and watercolor. In front of their house by the river, there stand 2 people - the artist and his companion. Virtually by the river, the house of the artist is in reality not by the river… This drawing is not framed. Frank Girard keeps on telling us through his drawings the stories of his encounters and of himself as he once stated: "I live in a district called “The written tree”. I don't know if this pretty name has not made its way in my head, but one day I started to draw inhabited trees and grass, with humans in nature, carried by nature, buried in this nature where we come from and where we live. My house is in the forest, I have trees all around me all day. I take care of them. They were there before me, they will stay after me. We observe each other with kindness. When I look at them, I see lots of people in the shade of the leaves, they tell me their adventures, the great myths, biblical or others, and always a quote from Venice. I am in love with this marvel, this total work of art which is this floating city. "
