The opposite of foresight, no foresight for each step. First step a simple line with graphite or ink, a nude gesture, adding some acrylic in grey shadows, and then with some powerful colors, a second and third warm color, to marry cold and warm, transparency and mass, and finish with a graphic of oil pastel. It’s the beginning of a story which do not always happen in the same way, can be repeated and repeated, till obtaining a canvas with a lot of layers accumulated through the time. Like weather foresight, fore sighting is never reliable. Viviane Beaufumé
