Waiting For An Angel - Watercolor sketch – 8 x 11 in. A while ago, I found myself waiting for you in a city on the other side of the world. Rain had fallen for weeks, and even nights were working overtime. Was it in Dresden? No, rains there had turned white. Vienna? No, only ghost rains of 1914. Avignon? No, those rains spoke only French – with an Italian accent. Here in Rain City (wherever that may be) Autumn had unbuttoned the golden dresses of the poplars; they floated for a week in the clouds above the other side of the river, like a canopy of incense. At a window table in a café, I was drawing the terrazza of an empty restaurant on the other side of the street. Perhaps angels got hungry, perhaps you would appear. Every night I was the only client there. The waitress, round as a drum, and with the voice of a little girl, often paused to look at my drawing, and then at the colors. She never mentioned rain. Was it an aria from Tosca that she hummed? (Or was that aria from La Traviata?) Perhaps it was only the echo of vesper bells from the cathedral on the other side of the City that opened the windows? Where ever you were, dear Angel, you were here. After the rains grew bored and floated on to bless other cities, hungry guests appeard in the restaurant, their glasses empty. The sketch of the terrazza will always be a mess, never finished. It held nights and rains, arias of Puccini, and vesper bells. It held me. And I too, an other me, waiting for an other you. ⁂ Other links: [ this post on my website ] [ about my new book ]

[ENG] I don’t always know where a fragment comes from. This one has no coordinates. No era. Three figures with scythes. A wreck. Gold running through the dark like something that refused to disappear. I kept it because it holds together in a way I can’t explain. Everything seems to be falling, and nothing falls. That’s the only kind of balance I trust. Oil, gold leaf and hydrangea petals on Arches paper. 28,3 × 20,8" — Les Fleurs du Mal, 2014. — [FR] Je ne sais pas toujours d'où vient un fragment. Celui-ci n'a pas de coordonnées. Pas d'ère. Trois figures avec des faux. Une épave. De l'or qui court dans l'obscurité comme quelque chose qui a refusé de disparaître. Je l'ai gardé parce qu'il tient ensemble d'une façon que je ne saurais pas expliquer. Tout semble tomber, et rien ne tombe. C'est le seul type d'équilibre auquel je fais confiance. Huile, feuille d'or et pétales d'hortensias sur papier Arches. 72 × 53 cm — Les Fleurs du Mal, 2014. #labyrinth #darkfantasy #fantasyart #worldbuilding #baudelaire

When WWI ended in this underground city a century ago, soldiers left many objects behind. These objects are on a cooking platform that served as a kitchen for the hundreds of troops that lived here. This place is a world frozen-in-time.
