France
Biography
My first contacts with art certainly go back to childhood. My father was passionate, he painted as an amateur and drew a lot, but I have no more memories. I bathed in a favorable atmosphere. I studied architecture in Versailles and it was by following Frédéric Benrath's plastic arts course that I decided to become an artist.
I started painting when I was 23. I felt deep emotions and a strong attraction for abstract painting. I was very sensitive to the history of art and marked by impressionism, surrealism and abstraction. So there were a lot of artistic expressions and artists that fascinated me. It is, I believe in this way that art and painting attracted me.
