Description of the Artwork “Poitevin Swamp: Untouched Nature”
The Marsh of Poitevin, also known as “The Green Venice”, is an area of unique natural beauty located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. This extensive swamp, originally a gulf of the sea, has been gradually transformed over the centuries into an intricate network of canals, streams and wetlands, creating an environment rich in biodiversity. Filled with a serene and peaceful landscape, the Poitevin Swamp is a haven for a variety of birds, fish and wildlife. Its calm waters reflect the lush vegetation that grows along the banks, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and contemplation. The Marsh of Poitevin is truly France's hidden treasure, a natural gem that invites visitors to reconnect with nature and enjoy the serenity of its unique environment.

Alex began his artistic career in early 2017, when he watched a video online of a person painting roses on canvas. This moment was decisive and inspiring, leading him to explore the world of painting. He began producing small studies on canvas as a hobby, experimenting and discovering his own artistic expression. Alex has always had a deep admiration for landscapes, which naturally influenced his early works. He dedicated himself to painting small canvases that captured the serenity and beauty of nature, using colors and techniques that reflected his passion for the subject. The commercialization of his works occurred organically. Alex's talent caught the attention of some people, who were interested in purchasing his paintings. This early recognition was a powerful incentive, motivating him to invest more time and resources into his art. Just six months into his career, Alex reached a significant milestone by exporting one of his works to France. This feat not only validated his talent, but also increased his determination to pursue an artistic career. Since then, Alex has dedicated himself to constantly improving his knowledge and skills, studying new techniques to enrich his art. Alex's journey as a visual artist is marked by continuous growth and the incessant search for improvement.
