    About this artwork

    …Naïf ? Cette étiquette ne le gêne guère. « On m’a traité de naïf dans la vie. Alors… » Des toiles qui font des clins d’oeil d’amicale complicité. Des tableaux exubérants. Remuants. Les poissons sont rigolards…L’Atlantique est un lac tout doux. Il ne s’agit pas de vocation tardive avec Willy mais de vocation retardée. « Je n’ai aucun message politique. Même dans la vie de tous les jours, la politique ne m’intéresse pas. Je n’ai pas non plus de message philosophique. Mais seulement un message d’amitié. De joie de vivre, de jeunesse ou d’enthousiasme. »…

    - Interview with Marie-Thérèse Arbid, L’Orient-le-Jour, 20 Mars 1974
