William Bernard. Born in Lyon (France) on November 14, 1992.

Following a very disturbed youth, I had to stop my 3rd year of college to enter the workplace when I was 16 years old.

I started working in handling, then in sales and finally in luxury ready-to-wear in Paris. Two different universes which, due to their duality, were an intense source of inspiration for me.

Having done no artistic studies, I am completely self-taught. This allowed me to explore art in my own way by drawing inspiration from the greatest and their techniques.

I started to draw fully around the age of 10 and I started with painting in September 2018.

My artistic references are Roberto Ferri, William Bouguereau, Leonardo da Vinci, Victoria Frances, Goya, Caravaggio.
