Biography.
Born in France, I have spent most of my life in Canada, living in different provinces, before settling in France in 2007.
I attended the Fine Arts school at Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, in 1982, and from there on, I taught while continuing to work on my own.
Presentation.
Having worked, over the years, using different techniques and from different approaches, I have tried to explore and further my understanding of their expressive qualities.
In doing so, I hope to create a work in which I will be able to convey my relationship to life in its endless forms of appearance and its multiple expressions, thus hoping to create something which will be meaningful to me and, maybe, to others.
At each dawn, creation begins anew.
A more complete overview of my work can be seen by following the links below.

Biografie
In Frankreich geboren, habe ich erst mein Leben in diversen kanadischen Provinzen verbracht, bevor ich mich 2007 in Frankreich niederließ.
Ich habe 1982 die Schule der Feinen Künste an der Concordia Universität in Montreal, Kanada, besucht. Danach unterrichtete ich, während ich für mich selbst arbeitete.
Präsentation
Über die Jahre hinweg habe ich verschiedene Techniken und Vorgehensweisen ausprobiert und versucht diese zu erkunden, um ihre expressiven Qualitäten besser zu verstehen.
Auf diese Weise hoffe ich etwas zu kreieren, mit dem ich meine Beziehung zum Leben mit seinen endlosen Facetten und mannigfaltigen Ausdrucksformen veranschaulichen kann. Somit möchte ich etwas erschaffen, das mir und vielleicht auch anderen etwas bedeutet.
Mit jeder Morgendämmerung beginnt der Schaffungsprozess von neuem.
