Ayant survécu à l'incarcération, Blandine fut livrée aux bêtes qui refusèrent de lui faire le moindre mal. Elle fut torturée et dut assister à la mort de ses compagnons. Elle fut ensuite flagellée, placée sur un grill brûlant, puis livrée dans un filet à un taureau qui la lança en l'air avec ses cornes.
Ayant survécu au taureau, sainte Blandine fut achevée par le glaive. Elle fut la dernière des 47 martyrs de Lyon à accomplir son martyre durant l'été 177.
Sainte Blandine est la patronne de la ville de Lyon. Elle est aussi, avec sainte Marthe, patronne des servantes.
I learned my job as a visual artist at the Beaux Arts in Quimper and worked with very talented artists, Danièle MADEC (painting with a knife), Jean Jacques QUINQUIS (watercolor), Yves DOARE (engraving), Louis DERBRE (sculpture).
For 10 years, my work has focused on 2 subjects: the human body and the contemporary vision of Breton heritage (31 award-winning works). Many local but also international exhibitions (Tunisia, Japan) have hosted my paintings.
In 2004, I had the chance to meet an extraordinary painter, Jean TIRILLY. Since then we have been working together. By his side, I learned to paint what I saw in myself. He allowed me to dare.
Spirituality and the human being nourish my inspiration.
In addition, holder of an art therapist diploma from the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy of Poitiers, I specialized in helping and caring for drug addicts.
Art therapy is a therapeutic means of fighting addiction. I developed this subject in the book "Discover Art Therapy - Words on pain - Colors on pain" published by Larousse, Paris 2010.
