The\u00a0<b>conversations<\/b>\u00a0I refer to reflect recent discoveries about how trees communicate with each other. Through their roots, they exchange information useful to their development and survival. The older trees protect the younger ones and help them to grow.<\/p>\n<p>My paintings are an invitation to return to the silence of the forest and listen to the trees. You won&rsquo;t hear words, but you&rsquo;ll feel the soothing effect if you pay attention for a while.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tRead more<br \/>\n\t\t\t<a data-settings=\"{&quot;action-type&quot;:&quot;link&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil-art.square.site\/\" target=\"_blank\">Artwork acquisitions\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Etude-avec-vignes-acrylique-sur-bois-mcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Etude avec vignes, acrylique sur bois\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"41 x 30 cm, coll. priv\u00e9e\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjY4NSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2ZyYW5jZW1jbmVpbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL0V0dWRlLWF2ZWMtdmlnbmVzLWFjcnlsaXF1ZS1zdXItYm9pcy1tY25laWwuanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiYTJjOTMxMSJ9\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/De-vignes-et-d_eau-acrylique-sur-bois-mcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"De vignes et d&#039;eau, acrylique sur bois\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"61 x 61 cm, coll.priv\u00e9e\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjY4NCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2ZyYW5jZW1jbmVpbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL0RlLXZpZ25lcy1ldC1kX2VhdS1hY3J5bGlxdWUtc3VyLWJvaXMtbWNuZWlsLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImEyYzkzMTEifQ%3D%3D\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Reflets-acrylique-mcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Reflets, acrylique sur bois\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"61 x 61 cm\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjY4OCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2ZyYW5jZW1jbmVpbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL1JlZmxldHMtYWNyeWxpcXVlLW1jbmVpbC5qcGciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiJhMmM5MzExIn0%3D\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rivage-acrylique-sur-toile-fmcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Rivage, acrylique sur toile\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"76 x 101 cm\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjY4NiwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2ZyYW5jZW1jbmVpbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL1JpdmFnZS1hY3J5bGlxdWUtc3VyLXRvaWxlLWZtY25laWwuanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiYTJjOTMxMSJ9\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/L_autre-rivage-acrylique-sur-toile-mcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"L&#039;autre rivage, acrylique sur toile\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"76 x 101 cm\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjY4NywidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2ZyYW5jZW1jbmVpbC5jb21cL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL0xfYXV0cmUtcml2YWdlLWFjcnlsaXF1ZS1zdXItdG9pbGUtbWNuZWlsLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImEyYzkzMTEifQ%3D%3D\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/francemcneil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/peinture-conver.bleue-mcneil.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"a2c9311\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"conversation autour d&#039;une plan\u00e8te bleue, technique mixte\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"118 x 118 cm, Coll.
