The Angel’s Rest. Portrait of Anna with wildflowers. Thursday, studio session to expand the portfolio of a model. Tall, blonde, slender; The archetype of the Russian model. Preparation… At dawn, pruning shears in hand, I dive into a flowering fallow land and cut, cut the necks of wild and magnificent flowers. A little later, an undergrowth loses a few grasses and shrubs some of their foliage.

Mirabelle, aka Anna, a bouquet of flowers, almost a, in her arms, wriggles a little, her eyes narrowed, a little uncomfortable.

– “все хорошо ? “Are you okay?
– “да да; Все идет хорошо!” Yes, yes…

Well, let’s continue… Lying on a Pulka (Lappalainen’s), a kilometer of perfect legs and a little… concentrated. Definitely not as comfortable as that. Checklist… The temperature is perfect, the décor ad hoc, the clothes, hairstyle, make-up as discussed. Well, maybe it’s a day off.

That’s it, done! At these words, Anna suddenly gets up, pierces me with a flamboyant blue gaze (® Russian feminine archetypes); grabs the huge bouquet of flowers and foliage and throws it violently at the other end of the studio.

“I don’t like flowers !!”
