Like an old backdrop.

How can you find an XVIIIth century venitian frescoe in typical Normandy cottage ?
How can you mix two "styles" that are so different without risking a big clash, a big mess.
This is the challenge my last clients proposed me.
They are admirers of XVIIIth century in general and of Tiepolo in particular and I had already painted numerous murals in their previous home, a few years ago.
They have moved, sold their house to a famous rock star and bought a very charming house in Normandy, in the heart of the famous Pays d'Auge.

So, we decided to imagine a story , or to pretend and play like kids do ...let's say that we had found some beautiful painted canvases in an attic, like fragments of  an old theater backdrop, let's say that it was a copy of one of the most famous frescoes of Tiepolo in Palazzo Labia. All these canvases would have almost the right size but not exactly, they would create some kind of continuity, but not really, let's dream... it could look like this...

... and like this...
