Pierre Marie Brisson

"Sir, if you step any closer, I will have to have you arrested"
"Are you an artist?"
"It's usually the artists who stand up really close to look at the artwork"
"What is your profession?"
I'm an engineer.
"Ah, so you would appreciate the details and emotions that go into creating something beautiful"
I can relate to the emotions that drive and motivate, but we are not allowed to use our emotions.
Yes, it is mechanical, clinical and precise.

We then chat a little about structure, composition, design, collecting, personal expression, and how strongly she feels about Brisson's work. She hands me a card and mentions that I can browse his other works online. But the pictures don't do them justice, she says. Yes, there is depth and texture. I thank her and excuse myself to catch up with my friends.

"Call me when you're ready", she smiles.
