Golden Watch
©2017 Suzanne Belair
Acrylic on canvas 30 X 30 in
From the corner
Golden warmth is keeping watch
Over the forest and its inhabitants
Have no fear
There is protection
For all that live within
Its boundaries
As long as you submit
To nature’s laws.

Indomptable
©2017 Suzanne Bélair
Acrylique sur toile 30 X 30 po
Man wants to subdue the forest
To his power, to his needs
Man wants to tame the forest
But the forest is fighting
Each time it resists
After each attack, it regenerates
Indomitable, secret, new
Each time it reveals itself
Despite the assaults
Every time it relives

A simple winter morning, magnificent in all its beauty!
Can we really speak of simplicity when all this complexity is in front of our eyes?
What would we be without nature and its biodiversity? Nothing
We need nature but she does not need us
When we’ll have destroyed it
She will slowly regenerate
But it will not be us or our descendants that will be enjoying it
Because when we will have annihilated her
Humanity will have perished
It is not too late
Let’s be conscious of our behaviours
And take action without delay!

Marie et la chatte
©2014 Suzanne Bélair
Huile sur toile 24 X 30 po
This painting was created for the book cover of Louis-Philippe Hébert’s poetry-novel called “Marie Réparatrice” published in November 2014.
It is impossible not to fall in love with young Marie, this 8 year old child witnessing violence, and ready to sacrifice a bit of her own life to repair animals and people around her. A small sensitive girl that loves and who thinks that to give, one must lose something and is prepared to lose because she loves.
The book, published by Les Editions de La Grenouillère, has been chosen as finalist for 2015 Governor general of Canada’s Litterary prizes in the “Youth litterature- text” category.
The selection of finalists and winners is made by a peer-review jury chosen by the Canada Council for the Arts. This year, more than 550 works in French and close to 1000 in English were submitted.
I am really happy to have been part of this wonderful project !
The book has been translated in Roumanian and will soon be available in English.
