Born in Cannes in 1961, I have been a self-taught painter for 35 years, with a deeply human and inspiring journey. Marked in childhood by his parents’ separation, he grew up with his maternal grandparents in a simple and happy atmosphere. His connection to art is rooted naturally in his family background, as both his great-grandfather and his uncle were painter-artists themselves.

After exploring drawing and sport, painting became an obvious calling at the age of 20. His first portrait, painted as a tribute to a loved one who had passed away, marked a decisive turning point in his life. He then discovered the expressive power of black and white and adopted dry pastel as his preferred medium.

In 1993, following personal work in sophrology, he began shifting toward a symbolist painting style, deeply connected to emotion and memory. Since then, he has never stopped painting, creating more than 600 works blending portraits, inner visions, and universal symbols.

« I paint above all out of passion, often within a creative bubble where time disappears. »

Nature is a kind of anchor where I draw my ideas from this green setting; painting and nature are inseparable, a kind of creative pairing.

Always curious, I explore new techniques (airbrush, pigments, frame and color making), continuing with humility and determination along an artistic path rich in meaning.
