Arnaud Quercy is a Parisian artist working across painting, music, and sculpture. His practice is grounded in Ideamorphism — the principle that a work of art does not carry meaning, but triggers it. Each piece is engineered to diffract differently through each person who encounters it.
He creates and exhibits at Art Quam Anima, his gallery-atelier at 28 rue du Dragon, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Paris.
About This Artwork
Composition 3 explores the dynamic relationships between geometric forms and color through watercolor pencil techniques. Part of the Untamed Creations collection, this work investigates how abstract shapes can create visual harmony while maintaining individual character within a unified composition.
The composition centers on cool blue-gray tones that dominate the surface, creating a foundation for warmer orange and brown geometric elements. Steel gray and lightslategray areas provide structural backbone, while burnt sienna and peru orange shapes emerge as focal points. The interplay between angular forms and curved boundaries creates spatial depth, with accent colors including grayish purple, navajowhite, and paleturquoise providing subtle color variations throughout the piece.
The work measures 10.0 × 15.0 cm and weighs minimal amounts appropriate to its paper support. Created in 2024 as part of Arnaud Quercy Creations, it carries certificate of authenticity number 20240311-0064 with signature on the back. This compact format allows the geometric relationships to read clearly while maintaining intimate viewing scale. The piece was sold to a private collector in Paris, France in March 2025.
