"Abstract painting is imagination in colors for a plural look"
Biography
I liked art very early, I started with drawing and painting (freehand reproductions). My motivation was always need to create. I realized it by writing and especially by self-taught painting. I secretly nurtured a vocation of artistic expression that grew in power.
I visited galleries and museums in France and abroad, I followed artistic learning (university drawing course: figurative). Visits to the workshops of contemporary painters who kindly welcomed me, were the definitive trigger of a more intense practice.
My taste for aesthetics, colors, textures and free expression of deep emotions naturally led me to contemporary on the margins of my professional activities. I took online acrylic painting courses. Here are some of my paintings. I use acrylic for its fluidity. I work mainly with brushes, brushes, sterilizers, sometimes in mixed technology with knives, spatulas, sponges, hands, sprays, pouring. I try to combine spontaneity and pictorial structure. My starting point can be intuition, impression, nsight (an inner vision), colour, line, shape… I like surprises and plastic incidents. I often play with effects of reliefs, movements, drops, dissonances, contrasts, irruptions, unfinished. I'm a colorist painter/
Art allows intersubjective and pluricultural encounters: it is a meeting of humanity that does not exclude anyone and transcends identity withdrawals. Intimacy opens up to the universal in a demanding and enriching adventure.
If you are interested in a purchase or if you wish to exhibit some of my paintings, do not hesitate to contact me.
