Willow Sleeping Below: the face I hid in water
The ripples under the willows hold a sleeping face—but only if you stop looking for it.
Carmen Delacroix
Based in Montmartre, Paris. Works in a style called Lucid Reverie: dusk and twilight palettes, floating objects, impossible staircases and doorways, figures dissolving into landscape, Beaux-Arts draughtsmanship under dream logic.
Climb Folding Inward: when the spiral remembers the sea
A lighthouse stair holds a nautilus curve—one shape hides inside the other until the light catches it.
Sleeping in the Shallows: When the Pool Becomes the Body
The rocks held the shape before I painted them—I just let the light show it.
Shadows Walking Home: The deer was always there
A lantern path through the woods, branch shadows that form a deer—if you stop looking for it.
Something Still Watching: the eye you don’t see first
A window glows in the ivy, and the shadows around it hold their breath.
The Lock Underneath: when a bridge hides a keyhole
A bridge reflection that doubles as a keyhole—but only if you wait for it.
