Living at the time in the great city of San Francisco, USA, I started art a self taught artist on live model from 1980 to 1982. Then I registered at City College art department and studied with Rick Rodriguez from 1982 to 1984 and then again from 1991 to 1993. Rick was an abstract painter and amateur of Kathy Kollwitz’s work, an expressionist German painter and sculptor whom I admire. From 1986 to 1990 back in Paris, I studied classical art with Michel King, French seascape watercolorist and painter, a great teacher and lover of classical art. He was the first one to give me the first approach of solf pastel.
Even though I produced works in charcoal, sanguine, pastel, oil and did collage during all those years, the real need to become a professional artist happened in 1997. From that date, I begun to use soft pastel as its vibrant and sensual colors seemed to really fit my own personality. In 1999, I met the great English portraitist Ken Paine whose strength and loose style still fascinates me to this day. Ken gave me the inner self expression “lâcher-prise” that one can find in my portraits with pastel and of course in the abstract works I have developed with oil painting since 2005. During my staying in California, I also had the possibility to see many works from Pollock whose work impressed me and I particularly like the Canadian artist, Riopelle in his expressive and abstract work. I live and work in Paris (Please check my personal website for more information ).
