Michel
Born in 1952, during my adolescence I always teased the brush, the chisel and the wood chisels. Destined for an artistic career, life decided otherwise. In 2014 I encountered a driver, 13 months of hospitalization, loss of my mobility and 70% of my left arm, I had to start all over again, and it was Art that opened up a new life for me, and new Horizons. Sitting in my new armchair, I picked up my brushes, at first I painted and painted again and again. Self-taught and a jack of all trades, curious, with an imagination always alive, I practice: acrylic, colored inks, watercolor, and for my sculptures: I discovered sandstone modeling, welding, resin, etc. My techniques are the fruit of my personal work, and its errors. Very prolific and self-taught, I try all the techniques with more or less success but with time and work, it improves over my errors and my doubts, and this in a workshop that I had to adapt to my disability. No styles and above all no comfort zones, all my works are very varied but with a common thread: the sea, its landscapes and its fish and a dominant of blues. I have exhibited in many galleries, taking into account my disability and some adapted local exhibitions, the difficulty being finding a place and exhibition organizers, ready to receive me, my works and my reduced mobility, which is far from obvious. My news for 2022, I have been contacted by great people. I will be present at the 5th Versaillaise biennial from January 18 to 23 and then Art Normandie Honfleur, from March 5 to 9 (12 countries represented) thank you again.
Today I opened my LM' workshop ART to the public, located in St Philbert de Grd place 25 km south of Nantes, 70 m2 of exhibition, paintings and sculptures, and against all expectations, a very great success.
I it makes 80% of my sales, with great encounters, those of my buyers, which is essential for me and comforts me in my creation, and thus to be able to exist as an artist.
