Mixed media on canvas, edition 1/1
78 × 65 cm / 30.7 × 25.6 in
Unique piece – signed by the artist
A symphony of color and texture, “Bleu Marin” (2025) is a profound testament to Pascal Courcelles’ mastery of gesture and matter. This one-of-a-kind mixed media painting is an immersive visual field — richly layered, intuitively composed, and emotionally charged.
The surface of the canvas is alive with movement. Soft lavenders, creamy whites, lemon yellows, aquamarine greens, and lilacs swirl and collide in an intricate choreography of color. From afar, the work evokes a drifting underwater garden or the shimmering reflection of a marine landscape. Up close, it reveals a topography of thick paint, sculpted with the hand and palette knife, forming peaks, ridges, and flowing ages of pure pigment.
“Bleu Marin” is a singular composition — edition 1/1 — created through a direct, physical relationship with the materials. There is no preparatory sketch, no formula. Each area of the canvas is the result of a decision made in the moment: a trace of the artist’s intuition and touch. Courcelles treats the canvas not only as a surface, but as a space to be inhabited by color and energy.
The emotional depth and tactile presence of this piece make it a strong addition to any collection. Courcelles has exhibited widely across Europe and Japan, and his work is known for its ability to transform color and gesture into something deeply moving. This painting offers not only aesthetic richness but also a sensory experience — one that evolves over time and reveals new elements with each viewing.
The surface is densely textured, with layers of paint applied so thickly they create their own physical architecture. The painting’s condition is impeccable, and it is ready to hang. Light plays an essential role — the work changes with the environment, offering subtle shadows and highlights that amplify its dimensional quality.
“Bleu Marin” is ideal for collectors who value materiality, complexity, and emotional resonance in contemporary painting. It carries a timeless energy — both meditative and expressive — and makes a bold visual statement without ever losing its poetic undertone.

Born in Brussels in 1956, Courcelles studied art at the Institut Saint-Luc in Brussels and in
Tournai, between 1972 and 1979. Since then, he has built a vibrant artistic path, with solo and
group exhibitions across Belgium, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, and beyond. But it is his visual language
that leaves the deepest impression: profoundly sensorial, composed of layers, material, and color,
not as an end, but as a process.
His painting is part of a material lineage, where comparisons have been made with Michel Frère
or even Eugène Leroy. But unlike Leroy, whose brushstroke carried a nearly tragic pathos,
Courcelles paints from a vital impulse, in celebration of life. With each gesture bursts forth the joy
of color, the pleasure of chromatic vibration. His iration for Riopelle is clear: both artists
explore the interweaving and layering of color, often in their pure state, explosive, like emotional
fireworks.
The work of Pascal Courcelles does not ask to be understood — it asks to be felt. It is vibration,
intuition, pleasure. And above all, it is a celebration of what is most simple and most essential: the
joy of painting.
