Everything is green.
Everything is calm.
In the middle of weeping willows, on a Japanese bridge, above water lilies, a little boy painted.
When, that's it, he's finished!
“Get the lavenders away!”
With the painting on his head, the child runs through the woods, crowding leaves, flowers and pebbles, to show his dad his work.
"It's very beautiful," exclaims the man with the long beard, in a yellow living room with a thousand and one Japanese prints.
The father knows exactly where he is going to store this beauty: among all his other paintings, of course!
“Never in life!”, replies the son.
He wants us to see him, not hide him!
And as he descends the stairs, the reader discovers two superb fold-out pages.
A rainbow of images…
We walk through this rural book with the same pleasure as a walk in the gardens of Giverny.
Because we are actually in Claude Monet's house!
Anaïs Brunet pays homage to the great master in this beautiful chiseled album.
She mixes her pencil stroke with the impressionist brush of the painter.
A nice invitation to travel.
Papa, look at my painting!, by Anaïs Brunet, Saltimbanque, 32 p., €17.50. From 6 years old.
