Description
ORIGINAL SOLD at Art & Fashion event, Beirut, July 2015! Thank you to the client from Beirut!!
This is my largest size canvas up til now, 100x100 cm (40x40in), knife and brush work mixed... trying also a different approach and letting myself go a bit `crazy`...I went for a `familiar` face...Abstracted portrait of singer/ songwriter Seal, painted to his song `Crazy`.
`...And through a fractal on a breaking wall
I see you my friend, and touch your face again
Miracles will happen as we trip
But we're never gonna survive, unless
We get a little crazy
No we're never gonna survive, unless
We are a little crazy...`

Joe Paradis
Regal expression, striking color palette that reinforces the power, mystery and sensuality that the face projects. Reviewing your other works on your webpage, I have concluded that you deal with serious themes and with considerable depth--so says this aging long-ago farm hand.
Christel Roelandt replied:
Joe, I am quite blown away with your deep comments on this Sunday morning, thank you so much! "Serious themes and considerable depth..." ...I DO have a great fear of shallowness, yes...so you must be right haha. Thanks again and a very happy Sunday, you made mine! Christel.

Suzi Gessert
Christel, I love your honesty when describing some of your thought processes with your paintings. "Getting lost" in one can turn out a most astounding piece of work, as you did here. Thanks for sharing what you went through to get to this! And, thanks for the warm welcome to FAA!! ~xo
Suzi Gessert
Christel, I love, love this one! It's amazing!
Christel Roelandt replied:
THanks, Suzi, this one started of totally confusing, I got lost. So I took it one step at a time, scotched off that area that I then dis with the knife and when I removed the scotch tape, I could see it all in my mind and it was really easy. Sometimes we have to give ourselves a little hand LOL!! Really happy to find you here too now!! xox Christel.
Patricia Awapara

Thank you, Patricia!! so happy you like it, sending my best regards to you!! Christel.

Yes Christel, no offence, but the catholic, and of course other religions as well, are quite good at brainwashing us with guilt feelings in order to bind us to their religion; and to their very limited ideas of what 'Free Will' means. :-)
Hartmut Jager
Ha ha ha, You are indeed a bit strange (which I very much like), for apologizing being on holiday ! ?
Christel Roelandt replied:
Hahaha, hartmut I wasn`t even aware I was apologizing for going on holiday. tell you though... must be the effect of 18 years at a nuns`school, always feeling guilty when I have too much fun. The good news is... it doesn`t stop me, lol !! Wish you a great day, Christel.
Mark Ashkenazi
fantastic art work , v f l
Christel Roelandt replied:
Thanks, Mark, great you stopped by my gallery and very happy you like this portrait! Have a great day, Christel.
Hartmut Jager
Christel I hope that you are going crazy again, - and often, because you have created a most wonderful and powerful portrait with perfect colors and composition. :-)
Christel Roelandt replied:
Haha, don`t worry Hartmut chances of me going crazy again are pretty high, lol!! Thank you so much for your kind comment, I am very late to answer, I was on holidays in europe for a month, sorry for that. Best greetings, Christel.
Aimelle ML
I agree Christel. and it shows that it is an inspired piece... there is such emotions in there! strong and powerful.. I really hope you will "let yourself go" always, only awaiting to be inspired and drived within ... (sorry my French would express much better my thoughts). Take care and happy creating Christel :)
Christel Roelandt replied:
Thanks again, Aimelle! Pas de problème , la prochaine fois en français si tu préfères , mais ton anglais est très bien, t'inquiètes pas , ;) xx Christel
