Presentation
Born July 17, 1937 in Sartène, a small town in southern Corsica at the gates of Alta Rocca, between sea and mountains. Viscerally attached to the austere pride of this block of granite, heavy with history and passion, I carry all this within me and I paint.
But I paint in the tranquility and the sweetness of life of La Bastidonne, a small Provencal village in the south of the Luberon, surrounded by vines and olive trees.
Not claiming to be from any school but drawing from all sources, I paint to tell the world, life, others ... and also to tell myself because the paintings are always more or less self-portraits. I paint because to paint is to say in silence. I paint because painting, like music, is the place where you can freely create your own paradise.
