Le Passage (2023) Painting by Stefan

Self-taught, I have drawn in periods since childhood. This taste for drawing comes to me from my mother, who also drew, like my grandmother. The presence of the texts comes to me from this taste for literature that my father passed on to me from a very young age.

It took me a lot of time, and deep introspection to be able to want express my emotions on paper and canvas.

When I reached my 40th birthday, I wanted to learn the basics that I didn't have. So, humbly, I took courses at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts. Then, the time that I was missing continued to pass, until life imposed on me, like each of us, to live a time where it was only allowed to come face to face with oneself. .

It was the moment I was waiting for, unconsciously, for this dive into the depths of myself which allowed me to force the barriers that I had not seen until then.

My paintings are the reflection of my life, of my hopes, of my sufferings too, but above all the expression of what I did not know how to say.

If the shared emotion is felt, it is that we were touched, at some point in our lives, by the same feelings.
