"From the age of 15, orders for bullfighting, hunting scenes, fantasia and others, are done through my entourage. I treat this subject with my first dry pastels, watercolor and India ink. The oil will appear. later. I discovered myself attracted by this singular, complex, rich, fragrant, difficult but sublime technique around the age of 16. In 2009, I entered an art prep in Paris, rue de Seine. view and my feelings on this world that is ART. Is grafted to this school, graphics, realizations-sculptures, architectural models. I move away and flounder in a “hubbub” of specificities, with a decadent raw material, which I want to be contemporary. I am leaving school to finally learn this discipline which supposes a past, a present, a future, a requirement, a rigor, a search for Excellence. Alone in front of my easel, I work tirelessly, color, the vibration of the line, the emotion, the decisive moment of the movement, the dynamism of the brush. A trait that is meant to be everything, except lukewarm. Paint what makes me vibrate. I then take my time, the time to look, to feel. Emotions are in no hurry, they are delivered, suddenly blazing. As my paintings progress, the subject emerges more and more pointed, complex. The beings, the beautiful, the colors. I hope that my works will bear witness to our time in these beings who transcend it, make it their own. I tend to mix genres, I like to paint anything animalistic as much as to paint human beings. I try to approach the two, different, linked by the same treatment, the same idea, an obvious palette, mine. My gaze becomes photographic, I thus accumulate a jumble of emotions, of moments, which is stored in my rough draft that is my head, these small pieces of life cut out that cross me, resurface accentuated in places, refined by other and emerges what seems essential to me in what touches me, accompanied by this nervous dynamism that is my line.
