Technique[modifier le code]
The paintings of MisterMN are an emotional map of the human feelings. From researches and books, he chooses a dynamic icon to be represented. To capture those expressions, he works closely with his "muse" in precise pose to create a movement and an specific aesthetic. The process of creation continues with the drawing, which is the most important for the artist, "the true language of the visual art is the line", he catches the movement, the expression in the eyes, of the lips, of the hands. We shall feel by the line the all personality and get the message straight away. Then the composition of the drawing is precised by computer, then enlarged to fit on the found fabric. Most of the time the fabric MisterMN uses are bed linen very colourfull and detailled close to the baroque style. Finally the drawing is pasted onto the canvas and ready to be painted. Now the Artist uses Oil paint and Graffiti spray can.
