En Mémoire

Just learned the sad news that one of my favorite French singers Daniel Lévi passed away in August, 2022.

 

It was years ago that I thought listening to French songs could help my learning of the language, then I came across Daniel and was impressed by his performance in the French musical "Les Dix Commandements".

 

And about 9 years ago I was interested and enrolled in an acrylic painting class. In one of the assignments the instructor would like us to do a portrait painting. To make things easier for us, painting based on a photo was allowed. I came across a black and white photo (original) of Daniel and decided to make it into a painting in colours. I quite like the choice of colours that I made and this was my early attempt in acrylic painting.

 

Did not intend to show this painting in public but I think it would be a nice gesture to show my respect to this late artist.

 

Repose-toi en paix Daniel, tu sera toujours dans notre cœur!
