Hello,
I am an amateur painter.
I started painting in 2010. Previously, I had done plastic art and calligraphy work.
My painting is essentially abstract but I sometimes venture into the figurative.
My work is carried by the visual rendering of the work, not by a philosophical message or the representation of something real. This is why I constantly seek to create effects of transparency, depth, thickness, contrast, opposition in a general harmony of shapes and colors.
I work in acrylic as well as in oil, with a brush and a knife, not to mention the use of all kinds of mediums, even Indian inks. I like to explore these varied media to not only diversify my interest but also to exploit them to the best of their rendering possibilities.
Little by little I enlarge the surface of my works because I feel the need for space to express my compositions.
I took lessons in a private workshop in Saint Mandé for two years then Professor Raslain's lessons for one year at the Rueil art school.
I exhibited in stores and had my first solo exhibition in 2011 in a Parisian gallery. Since I started, I have sold nearly fifteen paintings. Even if this business is not my primary motivation, I nevertheless consider it as important recognition and interest in my artistic work.
I continue to participate in art fairs and art markets in order to make myself known to a larger audience of amateurs.
All my works are visible on my Facebook profile and on
Thanking you for your attention.
