J'ai réalisé ce tableau de manière très spéciale. J'ai récupéré les petites montres qui se trouvaient sur un vêtement que j'ai porté. Je les ai collées sur des petites plaques de bois, puis reportées sur un grand chassis. Je voulais faire remarquer que dans ce grand pays qu'est l'Amérique, les horaires sont différents que l'on se trouve à San Francisco, Los Angeles ou New-York. Les petites montres sont restées intactes, certaines sont en perles blanches ou dorées.

I have been retired from National Education since 2004

At the beginning of my studies, I would have liked to do Fine Arts, but faced with my parents' refusal, I went to Teaching.

However, I practiced my profession with a lot of passion, trying to transmit the taste for art to my students.

Since the start of my retirement, I have produced around 250 paintings, mainly in oil and dry pastel. My paintings are inspired by reality. I mainly paint landscapes, animals (more particularly tigers). I also like to reproduce the paintings of Masters: (The young girl with the Pearl. The Large bathers. The lesson of piano. Gabrielle with the Rose. The lunch of the Boating boats. The Gleaners.)

I have given most of my accomplishments to my children and other members of my family.

A lot of people tell me I'm talented, but I don't know if I should believe them, so your opinion is very important to me.
