A sweeping, textural landscape of layered light and movement, “Bleu Ciel” (2025) by Pascal Courcelles is a work of profound materiality and subtle emotional power. In this unique composition, the artist captures the essence of a sky in motion — not through depiction, but through rhythm, gesture, and the physicality of paint itself.
Built with bold impasto and mixed media, the surface becomes almost geological. Thick swirls of sky blue, ivory, and soft turquoise spread across the canvas like drifting clouds or sea currents. Interspersed throughout are moments of brightness — greens, violets, and flashes of yellow — offering contrast and hidden complexity beneath the overall serenity. Seen up close, the surface reveals a rich world of detail, with each peak and valley telling its own story.

“Bleu Ciel” is a one-of-a-kind work, part of Courcelles’ most recent series where the act of painting becomes sculptural. There is no replication — only this singular encounter between hand, color, and canvas. The work is signed and dated, and framed in a deep white box frame that emphasizes its dimensionality while protecting its edges.

This is a piece that speaks to those who value both the force of color and the subtlety of form. Courcelles, whose career spans decades of international exhibitions, has developed a voice that is unmistakably his own — intuitive, bold, and emotionally resonant. In “Bleu Ciel”, he transforms canvas into terrain, color into atmosphere, and paint into presence. It is a contemplative, immersive work that evolves with every glance.

The surface is rich and multidimensional, with peaks of paint that catch light in changing ways. The piece shifts from a distance — appearing like a calm, abstracted landscape — to a close-up field of energy and detail. Its physical presence is striking and its condition pristine. The frame adds elegance and depth, allowing the work to breathe and stand as a centerpiece in any space.

Ideal for those who are drawn to tactile, gestural painting with poetic depth. “Bleu Ciel” offers not just a visual statement, but an atmosphere — a sense of open space, elevation, and quiet intensity. It is both grounded and ethereal, making it a timeless addition to any serious collection.
