Hello {{{lastname}}}

That will be nice to see you soon at the next  World Festival of Underwater Pictures in MARSEILLE where I will exhibit, for the 16th year, 57 pieces including 14 new oil on canvas.

My traditional opening with a glass of "pommeau" should be held Friday at 5:30 pm, with music by Bernard Abeille and the Festival orchestra !

We'll introduce the last issue of Australian magazine "OCEAN GEOGRAPHIC", published by Michaël Aw, with a huge portfolio of 9 of my paintings under the nice title "Dreams in Blue Canvas" . (Preview, check online my previous 21 portfolios published in magazines worlwide ).

We should be able to preview the last video by filmmaker NATHALIE LASSELIN (which movie Héen Táak is in competition here) : "Le Peintre du Bleu...Immergé " (The Painter of Blue...Immersed) shooted during my exhibitions in lakes in Quebec and Saint-Lawrence River in August and September.

The Festival will take place for the second successive year at the Palais du Pharo in Marseille, October 27 to 31st,  2010.

The Event of the summer: 

Invited by AQUART 2010, that was an honor to participate to 3 unique exhibitions underwater at the Flintkote Quarry, Thetford Mines, Quebec,  August 6-8, at the Morrisson Quarry, Gatineau, North Ottawa, Quebec,  September 4-5, and in the Saint-Lawrence River, Brockville, Ontario, September 11-12.

50 of my paintings have been exhibited within 200 immersed artworks during this 4th Festival. I realized a new version of my “Matador” on one of 5 half-spheres. They are now immersed in the Flintkote Quarry, added to the permanent artworks which AQUART leaves at the bottom of the water every year since 2008.
