Perhaps by now you and I, both, realize how much I LOVE Charles Hallo.
I too, like so many of you, love animals. So, hunting is not an option for me personally. Although I had uncles, who were avid hunters. I preferred the zoo to a shotgun and I grew up with so many animals, domestic and farm and some wild. Dogs, cats, rabbits, geese, pigeons, deer whose mother had been killed, a baby chick owl, I am sure I am forgetting many. Hedgehog, yes! I gave a baby hedgehog a “bath” once, until my Grandma caught me and put an end to that! And how can I forget the chickens. I once had a blind chick as a pet…
Anyway, I have been working in my studio here, putting a video together, posting, answering emails, blogging when I realized how touched I am by Monsieur Hallo’s work. Yes, I absolutely adore the Courbettes e Cabrioles that I just posted a short video of, but there is something “personal”, something that strikes a cord when I see and hold a Hallo scarf. I was not aware of it per se until I just listed his Episodes de la Chasse à Courre from 1961. Mesmerized, I went over every detail of his carre. Would not want to miss a single line. Could it be my fond memories of times gone by? Could it be the pen drawings of my very talented cousin, whose deer leapt of his note book pages?
Well whatever it is, I hope that you too will enjoy this latest addition to our Charles Jean Hallo Collection…
