Eléonore Sieulle | Expressionist painter

Eléonore Sieulle: "I focus on expressiveness and emotional feeling and I rely on the momentum of my hand.

Through the speed of execution, I try to establish the immediacy of a movement and make apparent the primitive power of instinct.

Through drawing, I want to draw what is invisible to the naked eye. Drawing is the right to tumult.

Osho Rajneesh: "Se l'amore diventa profondo, resti in silenzio"...

• "Fa' di ogni passo una tua scelta. Crea te stesso e assumitene l'intera responsabilità".

• "La vita ha due polarità: l'essere e il fare. L'essere è la tua natura: è sempre con te, non devi fare nulla per averlo. È qualcosa che esiste già, che sei fin da ora; non è qualcosa che possiedi. Non esiste nessuna distanza: sei già il tuo essere. Il fare è una conquista".

• "Il problema autentico è risvegliare nell'individuo quel tanto di consapevolezza capace di generare in lui il desiderio di divenire libero, intelligente, autorealizzato e pienamente consapevole".

• "L'ego è uno sforzo costante per andare controcorrente".

Vincent van Gogh's suicide letter

Vincent van Gogh was an influential artist during the nineteenth century.

Widely believed to have been struggling with depression and insanity, he went out to a nearby field and shot himself in the chest, before stumbling back to his house where his brother Theo cared for him for two days, before he finally died.

Although he had sent a letter to Theo only three days earlier, he was carrying another letter to his brother on his person at the time of his suicide, largely seen as a suicide note.
