In two days (on Friday March 20th) it will be the “vernissage” (= private preview) of my first photographic exhibition.

It all started some months ago, when my friend’s wife (Anne-Marie Lepage, a watercolour artist already well known in South Belgium…) asked me to join in her next exhibition.

I was and I still am very honored that such an artist made me this proposal !

Actually, I will display my frames on the mezzanine of the “grange du Faing” (grange = barn) in Jamoigne, a beautiful renovated building near the castle, while the ground floor will be occupied by Anne-Marie’s aquarelles and some modern stained-glass work by Dominique Henry.

For more info (in French…) on the artists, I created a FaceBook event.

 

The main theme of my pictures will be “benches” (in the large sense) (I’m sure you’re not surprised !)

I made a choice among my 50+ images with a bench, printed (a relatively new experience for me) and framed about 20 photos.

 

I know that a lot of my R’osity friends will not be able to visit, but if you are in this area in the coming weeks, I would for sure be delighted if you stop and have a look…

Presenting, commenting and eventually selling pictures, while drinking a glass of Orval beer will be a totally new experience for me…..
