Happy Blogging. It was written, I would be blogging once more. 
I made the promise at one stage in the development of my creative vision, to share with the world via the blogosphere, the thoughts, ideas, concepts, projects that were inspiring me like a breath of fresh air. The breath of freshly discovered Art.
Blogs have been a big part of my personal evolution. Reading, learning and mostly getting entertained by what my contemporaries feel that they are free to express. It’s a beautiful time to be alive. To think about it, I was born few months after the fall of the Duvalier dictatorship, from which Haitian consciousness is still carrying deep scars. Freedom of expression is therefore a characteristic of my time. I am proud, happy and grateful to be on earth at a time where it’s accepted and made possible. 
Thru blogging, I made friends, I have built relationships with people that became clients, I have built relationships with people that have been collaborators. Thru blogs and blogging, I also discovered the tools that allowed me to tune my artistic vision. I would sometimes compose a post and never publish it. The idea of sharing this or that thought would shift my attention and the therefore my work in new directions and by so transforming me and canceling the feelings that inspired the post in the first place. So now that I am back on the blogosphere after quite a long absence, what are my expectations ? What is that I have the chance to live that would be of any use for you, the reader of today or the reader of tomorrow? It’s the alchemy inherent to writing, or the creative process in general that I hope to celebrate. The change that happens inside of us as we are accomplishing our task. Dany Laferrière, the writer, the immortal said somewhere that his life looks more and more like his books. As I am trying to work my life out, I am listening to the voice of the cricket of consciousness that comes on our shoulders to hope to find the way and celebrate the abundance that our time symbolizes. I strongly hope that these words will be useful to future me, to present and future you and that they will also be a source from which one can drink the potion of love. I intend to celebrate Life, as usual, Presence, Authenticity and the power of Generosity. The essence of the blog will not change. Photography might not be as central as it used to be, because after all it’s not as central in my life as it used to be. However, I hope that i’ll have the opportunity to celebrate the photographers that I admire but also the painters, the writers,the the cinematographers, the musicians, the philosophers, the entrepreneurs of all time and places. May they shine their magical light upon us. I will navigate between the different languages that I am familiar with. I ask for your forgiveness. Feelings just happen to come in a certain way.. It already feels good. Thank you all for reading my words once more. I hope that they will also bring you light, just like sitting on the sofa at Atelïer good people this morning, typing on this iPad gave the opportunity to watch the sun being reflected on the face of lady of the moon painted by my sweetheart. Thank you. Toast to blogging.
