“I invite you to a gentle and pretty walk on the banks of the intimate Loire, the one from my childhood in Mesnil-en-Vallée, the one which now enchants my Sundays. »
It is through this short introductory text that Françoise Réthoré invites you to browse the pages of the work intimate Loirewhich she has just published with Éditions ICI on her own account. 56 pages for 58 photos of his selection of pastels made over more than 25 years.
“Art is shared”
“I like watching the Loire flow; I love its colors, and the life that its waters offer; I love his whims, I love him in all seasons”, she continues. No doubt, those who consult his book should find there the serenity, the emotions, the lights of the wild river for which the artist nourishes a true loving passion. “Art is sharing, I want to share it with more people. »
