Excuse me for my bad English.

A native of Charente-Maritime and now living near Bordeaux, I always liked to draw. Already at school, I always sketch characters Asterix that I distributed around me, to friends and teachers. But at the age of 17 years that I did my first portrait on single sheet of A4 paper. And it is the starting point of a passion for portraiture that never left me ..

Over the years, with no classes or training whatsoever, I developed a personal technique with a graphite pencil, I create portraits from photographs.
But it was not until the year 1999, during which I broadened my registry by making pictures of characters (Nus, draping, newborns, etc ...) that I do know by participating in several Fairs and Exhibitions of paintings, and winning numerous awards.

Since 2010, I gradually began to add color to my pictures, using pencil and pastel colors.
For me, the design is above all a pleasure, a passion. My work therefore have no message to convey. I choose my subjects, my themes, according to my tastes, my desires and my mood.
The beauty, tenderness, sensitivity and sensuality inspire me and I am happy when you can feel it all through my paintings.
