I began painting in oils when I was 9 years old. I was fortunate enough to belong to a family that not only understood art but encouraged it. I attended a variety of art schools but mostly learned from observing other artists and visiting museums. I feel that one must try to experience as much as one can out of life, for there lie the seeds of creation. I've always felt that traveling in any form is one of the highest forms of education, and I often reflect on either a place I've been or a situation I've encountered as inspiration for my art.

Thank you Annick for your kind words. I'm glad you like my works. This is one of my personal favorites in a bittersweet way. I enjoy your work, too, and I'm glad we've been acquainted!
