I was born into a family of artists, close Paris. Art class with my father and my uncle.

Multiple themes that evolve over time: colocynths, portraits, Breton and international heritage, marbles, fruits, light, abstract.

I also realize several books for young people (but without publication, except a perfect plagiarism at "Nathan")
In 2011, I moved to Brittany
Real boom for my artistic career. meeting of the writer, historian and journalist Bernard Rio.
Discovery of the wealth of Breton heritage.
From 2012, I present my paintings in various Pastellist Salons, across France.
Several awards, including the excellent artisanal French pastels Girault.
In 2015 I joined the Société des Pastellistes de France.
In 2017 I meet my new companion, an English artist. From this union, my creative and professional universe flourished considerably.
I work again in different mediums, watercolor, acrylic, graphite, and enrich my subjects in International Heritage, but also in the abstract, as well as more spiritual notions.
From 2018, I exhibit more and more outside of France: Italy, Moscow, USA, England, Canada.
In 2019 : 30 illustrations for Bernard Rio's book, “1200 places of legends in Brittany”, coop Breizh edition.

I open my workshop-exhibition at my place of residence, in Brittany.
Today, I live, work and exhibit between the small and the great Britain.
All my "Fruits" at Barewall Galery , Burslem, Stoke on Trent (https://www.barewall.co.uk/)
I want to highlight the Heritage, rich in its History, its Arts, that which Men and Women have taken care to carry at arm's length: sculptors, cabinetmakers, painters, architects ... All have contributed to creating majestic monuments, whose symbolism goes beyond simple aesthetics.
I work on other themes: irises, marbles, and clothes from Celtic circles. My common thread is the work of the material, with the aim of creating a story between the work and the viewer. I want, through my paintings, to highlight the beauty of our heritage, and allow lovers of history to maintain the memory of our common memories, during vacations and travels.
