I realize that a lot of things are wrong in this world and can make you lose hope and joy in life. My essential driving force is to live my dream of colors, of joyful fantasies, always in search of a balance between shadow and light, strength and softness, passion and serenity.

My soul is filled with joy when I see an emotion reflected in the eyes of the one who immerses himself in the meanders of my world. This shared happiness is a consecration of the pleasure that I have to create according to my imagery and my dreams.

My writing may not be modern but it is sincere… Patouiller dans l'Huile is a real pleasure, battling with Acrylic and a real challenge, combining techniques is a real curiosity and always with total authenticity in the art. 'emotion.

Digital Painting has given me the immense freedom to combine creativity and the technology of which I am fond and a great pleasure to be able to explore my imagination always further.

Photography is an activity that I practice with joy, it develops my sense of observation in the infinitely small, through macrophotography, and in the always dazzling immensity that nature offers us in spectacle and fills me with infinities emotions. All of these approaches feed off each other to support my artistic work.
