During the European Heritage Days at the abbey of Trizay ( France), we have for the first time presented the Project , "ONE PAINTING ONE STONE ".
Each oil painting you buy will be usefull to restore step by step the abbey. Because she shelters and inspires the artist, the artist dedicates his art to her.
This artist is Patrick Cottencin, born in 1953 in France, a native of the Poitou region, who lives and works in this abbey in the Vendee, the abbey of Our Lady of Trizay. He has been painting and sculpting for thirty years. In harmony with nature, by flowing water, he attunes to the seasons. No longer tied down to any particular gallery because he now has his own exhibition space, he chooses to make his art highly accessible.
