Understanding the process:

I paint with chance! In terms of technique, I thus speak of photo painting. I do indeed my paintings on the phone, from an app I divert from its main function, namely, photo editing. I start pell-mell that I deform, modify in chromatic range many times, until the magic works and a new meaning appears by creating an illusion.

Often things stop there, but it also happens that I help the image to appear by making collages of pieces of the resulting image to reinforce its meaning. Finally, in ultimate cases, I make these collages from bits of images outside the worked painting. Sometimes, too, I produce black and white drawings that I photograph and then rework in the app. My paintings are then printed on polypropylene supports or Canvas canvases and are the subject of personalized frames in which the image is convent stretched by springs.
