About the Item
Mixed media on canvas by the Artist Meriem Delacroix, realized in 2023.
A synesthetic symphony that transcends the boundaries of sight and scent, whisking us away to the enchanting alleys of childhood Paris. This canvas, bathed in a delicate palette of beige, pristine white, and rich brown, is adorned with the subtlest hints of shimmering gold, each hue a fragrant note in the memory of a stroll past Parisian boulangeries.
The base of the painting, a creamy expanse of beige, white and brown serves as the canvas’s olfactory foundation, a visual ode to the buttery richness of freshly baked croissants. It’s as if the very essence of butter has been suspended on the canvas, inviting you to close your eyes and breathe in the sumptuous aroma, the scent of freshly proofed yeast, rising in perfect harmony with the brushstrokes. It’s the whisper of promise, an invitation to partake in the pleasures of life’s simple. Lustrous streaks of brown unfurl across the canvas, evoking the sweet embrace of sugar and warm air coming from the boulangeries. These strokes dance with the grace of pastry, invoking an irresistible desire for a bite. The brown holds within it the secrets of childhood cravings, and it beckons you to savor those fleeting moments.
And then, a touch of gold imbues the painting with the warmth of a Parisian morning. This precious metal captures the ephemeral beauty of those memories, glistening as if the very air were filled with nostalgia and delight.
“Ballet of Scent” is more than a painting; it’s an evocative artwork that beckons you to inhale the scent of a thousand croissants, each brushstroke an aromatic journey to the heart of Parisian boulangeries.

Within this chaotic canvas, sporadic bursts of stark white pierce through, resembling hesitant flashes of insight or doubt.

- Round Deep Purple, Blue, and Gold Three Dimensional Mixed Media PaintingLocated in Houston, TXDeep purple and gold abstract mixed-media painting by Hawaii-based artist, Èlan Vital. This round piece depicts a deep, almost three-dimensional painting achieved through layers of pigments. Small stone-like details create texture throughout the painting. Paint drippings are also seen along the edges of the piece. Signed by the artist at the back of the painting. Unframed but framing options are available. Artist Biography: As the son of a prominent lithographer and growing up in New York City, Élan was exposed to art and color at a very early age. His discovery of Leonardo DaVinci's renaissance diversity theory first touched him when he was only seven; DaVinci became an influential force in Élan's life and still is to this day. Élan attended a high school for gifted students and graduated with honors, attaining an equivalency of an Associate Degree in Engineering at age seventeen. After graduation, Élan was hired by the IBM Corporation as a computer diagnostics expert - the youngest on their team. He was later hired by the ITT Corporation as a design engineer for projects such as the Manila airport underground lighting system and the towers for a hydroelectric dam in Pakistan. Élan's personal artistic revolution began after leaving the corporate world and joining a commune of artists in the East Village, Manhattan. It was there while designing psychedelic lighting equipment, Élan met Andy Warhol. Andy committed the monetary resources for Élan to design the first psychedelic discotechque, located on Saint Marks Place in New York City. This became the springboard for many artistic endeavors for Élan - combining invention with art. Élan moved to Hawaii in 1988. His first major work in Maui was a 49-foot, 10-ton, life-size, humpback whale - the largest sculpture of its kind in Hawaii. Élan donated the whale to establish Maui's Ecology Park, where it is now on permanent display. After completion of the whale, Élan began his signature work - combining aerospace enamel with exotic pigments and finely ground minerals. His inspiration for these meta-realistic paintings comes from the beauty of gemstones, his colorful surroundings, and life itself. Élan's masterpieces, with 30-75 layers of extraordinary color, explode with depth and movement! Like fine studio art-glass and gemstones, light travels through each individual layer of color; this is what makes Élan's work so incredibly luminous! The only artist in the world to use this medium and technique, Élan has captured nature's beauty, creating a unique and compelling style. Currently the number one selling artist of original paintings in the Hawaiian Islands, Élan has sold over 6,500 works, with patrons from around the world. More than 70% of Élan's admirers have acquired five or more works of art for their homes or businesses. Élan's originals can be seen online at Elan Vital...Category
