A polytech engineering background, combined with a passion for cars and the arts, isn't that a good start for designing car sculptures?
Designing an automobile evocation is a very long process, it took me more than 3 years to achieve this level of finish. I start by scrutinizing the essential lines that define the spirit of a car. Then I try to sublimate these lines, by drawing them directly on a white screen, which makes these creations 100% personal. After that comes a long period of trial and error, it's a real craftsman's job that requires a lot of patience and hours of sanding, editing, and sometimes starting all over again because the result is not exactly the expected one...
Each model is individually decorated, is signed, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. My sculptures are made in a highly specialized workshop, which also collaborates with prestigious museums such as the Louvre or the Rodin Museum. The many layers of paint and varnish are applied with great care by a company specializing in surface treatment in the aeronautical industry.
