SAINT DRUON avait deux rôles celui d'un SAINT et celui d'un BERGER. Aussi lorsqu'on demandait à un vieux paysan d'exécuter un travail important il lui arrivait de répondre: «Je n'sus mie SAINT DRUON, je n'pus point sonner à l'messe et être à l'procession »; Cette allusion au don d'ubiquité prêté à DRUON était comprise de tous. SAINT DRUON enseignait aux bergers comment protéger le bétail des maladies et d'autres conseils comme savoir se débarrasser des hannetons dont les nuées dévastatrices détruisaient la végétation et agaçaient les bêtes. D leur montra que des murs de bottes de paille attiraient les « bruants » le soir. Il suffisait alors à la nuit tombante d'enflammer et de brûler ainsi les insectes dévastateurs.
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.
