Having grown up in the Baie des Chaleurs region of the Gaspé Peninsula, I loved going to the nearby beach. The sound of gentle waves, warm sand under my feet, and the sea breeze made me feel free and relaxed. Sitting by the ocean, I admired its vastness and deep blue colors blending with the sky. Breathing in the fresh air, I felt connected to nature and grateful for its beauty. This connection inspired this collection, Aquaflora, which celebrates the beauty and mystery of aquatic life through colors and textures.
