When I completed this painting, titled SAMOURAÏ, and laid down my final brushstroke, I experienced an overwhelming, unparalleled surge of emotion—something I had never felt with any of my previous works. This piece became more than just a painting; it became my guide, mentor, companion, co-pilot, and spiritual counselor. I sensed that SAMOURAÏ would serve as a portal, an opening, and a gift to the world—offering those who encounter it an opportunity to truly step inside and connect with its essence. SAMOURAÏ is a painting that asks to be engaged with; you must invite it into conversation and gently allow it to awaken your vision.
