Roseaux, 1

Roseaux, 1 is a watercolour landscape capturing a quiet wetland scene, where reeds frame a reflective stretch of water under a softly layered sky. The composition emphasizes horizontality and depth, guiding the eye toward the distant horizon while maintaining an intimate foreground presence.

The painting explores subtle variations of light and color, with gentle transitions between cool blues, earthy greens, and muted browns. Through fluid brushwork and transparency, the landscape evokes calm, stillness, and the slow rhythm of natural environments shaped by water.

Created by Virginie Martin-Blaise, this work reflects an ongoing interest in landscape as a space for contemplation, where water, vegetation, and atmosphere merge into a quiet visual experience.
