With watercolor, I try to capture the mood of a scene, where light and color blend together to bring each moment to life.

Born in the Paris region, Kévin BAILLY learns the basics of drawing, perspective and the fundamentals of the material through the art workshops he attends during his youth. He then decided to make his passion for art his profession and turned to architecture. After studying in Paris and California, he worked for a few months in New York before returning to France in 2012. Kévin turns completely to his passion: creation. He uses painting to transcribe the emotions that architecture and urban landscapes bring to him.

Inspired by his numerous travels, but also by his life in Paris, Kévin explores and highlights the strong contrasts of each place. Thanks to watercolor, he immortalizes the present moment in a city or a landscape. Each brushstroke being unique and engraved on the paper, without possibility of return or correction, the use of watercolor allows to really anchor in the present moment and, for the artist, to be at one with his work. Considering painting as a soft accession to meditation, the Parisian artist gives a great importance to retranscribe the atmospheres and emotions of each place.
