Happy Halloween from everyone in the SNAZAROO team!🎃🧙‍♀️🧛👻🦇

We wanted to also share some of the photos taken from our fun face painting tournament yesterday that we had in the London hub.  

We put people in teams of 2 and they had to paint a pumpkin on the other person (face, hand, arm). Each person had 1 1/2 minutes.  The winners from each team then paired up and that continued until we had 1 final winner.   That winner was Tara Badr and very well deserved, so congratulations again Tara!

Everyone involved gave it their all and I think a lot of fun was had throughout – we had some very interesting and also very professional looking pumpkin designs at the end of it! 

Thank you to everyone for taking part and making it a really enjoyable afternoon and for Mara and the Wellbeing Team for arranging it.  

We wish you and your families a very happy and spooktacular Halloween!🎃

As part of the Coulheures D’Autonome festival in Antibes, artist Olivia de Bona, whom we support in numerous artistic projects, pays tribute to Matisse with a fresco painted with Flashe, and comments: “Echoing Fauvism, I sought to explore the emotions of colour through vivid touches of pure colour, using Lefranc Bourgeois Flashe. The scene is an interior-exterior contrast between the landscape and the window that frames it, a recurring theme in my work, as in Matisse’s. A special thought goes out to Marie and Clémence from Lefranc Bourgeois, who supported me in this project with Matisse’s colours! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to explore colour even further.”

Dans le cadre du festival « Coulheures D’Autonome » à Antibes, l’artiste Olivia de Bona, que Lefranc Bourgeois soutient dans de nombreux projets artistiques, rend hommage à Matisse en réalisant une fresque à la Flashe, et commente :

« En écho au fauvisme, j’ai cherché ici à explorer les émotions de la couleur par touche vivante de couleur pure, en utilisant la Flashe de Lefranc Bourgeois.La scène est un contraste intérieur extérieur entre le paysage et la fenêtre qui la cadre, un sujet récurrent dans mon travail, comme dans celui de Matisse.

Une pensée spéciale à Marie et Clémence de Lefranc Bourgeois qui m’ont accompagnée dans le projet avec les couleurs de Matisse ! Merci de m’avoir offert l’opportunité d’explorer encore plus loin la couleur. »
