C'est toujours une défi de vouloir rendre la couleur et les reflets cuivrés le plus vrai possible ! J'ai toujours aimé peindre de natures mortes du naturel... cela me rappelle mes premières huiles qui m'ont aidée à comprendre les formes, la lumière, les perspectives et les couleurs... quand on est autodidacte c'est un bon exercice que je reprends de temps en temps non sans plaisir !

Like all those who love Art, my penchant for beauty created in me the need to express myself in one way or another from a very young age by drawing with everything that came to hand. .
As a teenager I drew with a lead pencil but without ever picking up a brush. It wasn’t until I was 30 that I started painting in oils. As an autodidact, I copied from nature, photos or paintings and this is how I arrived, around ten years later, to discover the earth completely by chance!! Touch the material, model it, create in three dimensions. It was a real revelation: the transition from plan to volume produced no problem for me, I would even say that I discovered the technique which adapted most naturally to my needs for expression.
I attended several courses with sculptors to acquire some basics and since then, when circumstances allow me, I take immense pleasure in modeling, without leaving painting and especially drawing human or animal portraits in pastel. I also made forays into watercolor, which is still very difficult for me to master but whose transparency and spontaneity I love.
In parallel with all this, I had the enormous chance to learn and practice for two years in Seville, the reproduction of ceramic panels painted using Arab-Andalusian and Portuguese techniques, in the workshop of one of the greatest Andalusian ceramists.
I also created murals and decorative painting on glass in imitation stained glass.
