    Jean Claude Fouqueray est parti en retraite le 18 mars 2020. En raison du Covid, aucun hommage n’a pu lui être rendu pour ses 33 années de travail chez Colart au sein de l’atelier fabrication.

    Mais avec ses proches collègues, nous avions gardé l’idée de lui organiser une petite réception. Cela a pu avoir enfin lieu ce vendredi 16 décembre au Twins bar. C’est donc en compagnie d’une trentaine de personnes dont Thierry Collot que nous avons fêté officiellement son départ. Nous en avons profité pour le remercier pour son investissement pendant toutes ces années et surtout de nous avoir transmis avec passion son savoir-faire et ses compétences.

    Nous lui avons souhaité une joyeuse retraite auprès de ses amis et de sa famille.

    Jean Claude Fouqueray retired on March 18, 2020. Due to the Covid, no tribute could be paid to him for his 33 years of work at Colart in the manufacturing workshop.
    But with his close colleagues, we kept the idea of ​​​​organizing a small reception for him. It could finally take place this Friday, December 16 at the Twins bar. It was therefore in the company of around thirty people, including Thierry Collot, that we officially celebrated his departure. We took the opportunity to thank him for his investment during all these years and especially for having passed on his know-how and skills to us with passion.
    We wished him a happy retirement with his friends and family.

    • I love this post and the commitment to showing Jean-Claude how much he was appreciated.
      Well done team Le Mans for keeping your promise 👏👏👏

      J’adore ce post et l’engagement de montrer à Jean-Claude à quel point il était apprécié.
      Bravo à l’équipe Le Mans d’avoir tenu votre promesse

    • Merci 👍

    • Un grand bonhomme auprès duquel j’ai beaucoup appris! il incarnait les valeurs de passion et de qualité de Colart à l’extrême! quel bonheur d’avoir pu le célébrer…..

    Hi all!

    Last week while on holiday in Germany I visited Bauhaus in Singen and was so impressed by the Liquitex presence in store. The placement was excellent (at the edge of a busy aisle) and the selection of product was comprehensive with product information conveyed via engaging signage. Well done to the team in Northern Europe, very impressive!

    Vielen dank!

    • Brand managers travelling oversea for a store visit; respect Christina!

      Great to see as well that the new Liquitex Basics Canvasses arrived in this Bauhaus store already, just a few days after the containers arrived in Germany.

      Please allow me to use this opportunity to thank all colleagues involved to make this happen: it was quiet a journey, but we managed to make branded canvas-supply to Bauhaus profitable and much more sustainable.

    • Ah Christina, respect! I hope you managed time in the Christmas markets as well.
      I cannot tell you the number of times over the years when I have driven my family nuts whilst on vacation by diverting into an art store. Even tidying up and rearranging – sad but addictive and I shall probably still do it into my retirement?

    • Fantastic to see – I bet you felt a little bit of pride as well Christina !! Well done to team NE and Bauhaus for making Liquitex look so fab in store.

    • a true brand ambassador! Your brand is always top of mind even on holiday😊

    • Hats off to the NE team for strong placement and overall presence at Bauhaus – and setting strong standards for other accounts. Thanks for sharing on The Wall Christina. And yes, Gail – when Christina spoke to me about her visit to Bauhaus she was emitting a bit of pride.

    • Looks great – well done all involved in this!

    “Lily and the Snowman.”

    Check it out below and pay attention to its message.

    Turn up the volume.

    It’s well worth it.

    Cineplex – Lily and the Snowman from Hornet on Vimeo.

    https://vimeo.com/155987024

    Did you get the video’s message?

    One message is clear. Live long enough and you’re bound to look back on the landscape of your life and mourn things long gone.

    However, there’s something else deeper.

    Lily, the little girl and her magical snowman reminds us all to not get so absorbed in your thoughts or your job, that you forget to…

    Make time for the people and the things you love.

    As a child, Lily discovers her snowman can perform magical shadow puppet shows. Their relationship grows over the years until Lily’s busy life pulls them apart. And she hopes it isn’t too late to rediscover it, make time for it and share it with someone she loves.

    My question to you:  Are YOU making time for what you love?

    Or are you letting it fade away or sit forgotten like Lily’s snowman.

    It’s not difficult to do.

    We lead overwhelmingly hectic, busy lives.

    And, because of this, it’s easy to fall into the trap of not setting aside time for the people and the things in the past that we loved.

    • Thank you for sharing this Torkel. Very poignant and a great moment of reflection for me personally too.

    • I love this message Tork and so right…with the time of new year’s resolutions coming up, it’s so important to reflect on the things that matter

    • Oh my …. I’m still wiping the flood of tears pouring down my face. Thank you so very much Tork for sharing this and making us all stop and reflect on what are the most important things, or should I say, the most important people in our lives. It’s what matters over everything. Sending hugs and wishes to you and your family. Thank you.

    • Lovely to share that Torkel, good to have a reminder of these things once in a while, especially at a time for family and friends. I couldn’t access the link on Vimeo without joining, however there is the same one on youtube.

    • Love this. And I too am drying tears.

    Hier ist ein Brief von Kasia, der Kunsttherapeutin an der Universitäts-Kinderklinik Freiburg, das ist mein Herzensprojekt. Es ist schön, Kindern und ihren Eltern in ihrer sehr schwierigen Zeit mit Colart-Produkten ein wenig Ablenkung zu geben. Es ist nicht immer einfach, die einzelnen Schicksale, die sich in der Klinik abspielen, zu verdauen. Dieses Jahr war ich sehr bewegt, dass ein 10-jähriger Junge, der ein großartiger Kämpfer ist und sich sehr über die Spende der Pro/Brush Marker freute, aber leider sein Ende nahe ist, er schickte mir ein persönliches Video, das ich uns hier ersparen werde. Ich bin stolz darauf, ein Teil von Colart zu sein, was mir die Möglichkeit gibt, Kinder und ihre Eltern glücklich zu machen. Anbei ist eine aktuelle E-Mail, die Hoffnung macht. Vielen Dank an alle Entscheidungsträger bei Colart und ich möchte diese Gelegenheit nutzen, um allen ein frohes Weihnachtsfest und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr 2023 zu wünschen. hp Es ist eine Google-Übersetzung Entschuldigung für alle Fehler.

    • vielen dank für deine nachricht Michael – deine community unterstützung außerhalb von Colart ist wunderbar
