BONJOUR AND WELCOME IN MY SHOP.
SELF-TAUGHT, I STARTED IN 1991 IN THE SHOP OF AN OLD SCULPTOR - MASTERING VOLUMES AND PROPORTIONS AS WELL AS DIRECTLY CARVING ON STONE. WITH MY APPRENTICESHIP COMPLETED, I QUICKLY CREATED MY OWN SHOP. IN THE SUBJECT OF SCULPTURE, I LIKE TO GO TO THE ESSENTIAL WITHOUT SUPERFLUOUS DETAIL, CATCHING A MOVEMENT, AN ATTITUDE, AN EXPRESSION IN THE INSTANT. PAINTING COMES IN COMPLEMENT OF THE SCULPTURE. IT ALLOWS TO EXPRESS A WIDER SPAN OF SUBJECTS. PAINTING IS CONCEIVED AND THOUGHT LIKE SCULPTING. IT BECOMES A GAME BETWEEN THE TREATED SUBJECT, THE VOLUMES AND THE COLOR.
