My artistic process has for goal, channelling the positive energy that surround my life and transmitting it through the process of my creation.

My objective is to bring  the "spectator" of my works to rediscover the magic and the innocence of his innerchild.We face our innerchild  or we simply miss it completely, but the interrogation invites us to a reflection. Pablo Picasso said one day : "A painting lives only through the eyes of the viewer". Was he not right?

Each of my art works is an exersice that brings us to rediscover the joy, the serenity, the peace, the simplicity, the intside path and the magic of the dream world that is so close to us children, but grows more and more distant as we grow up. Why is it?

My art works, of a realist style, has a tendancy to become surrealist, with a naïve side and even visionnary occasionaly, because often I develop details to the extreme.  My commercial artist side more graphic monopolizes the fredom of the artistic side. This creates a duality translating into a metamorphose technique, unic, and brushes with the world of fairtales.  The characters are uncommun in my works. They are often small, solitary, static, fairy like and feminine. I am often associated to my feminine character, but do I really see myself so little in this world. I am not sure. What do you make of it?

At times I retransmit the beauty of a spot of nature that bedazzles me or charmed me deeply during a trip or an excursion. Current events are also a great source of inspiration. The two subjects that still arouse me today, and did from a long way back, are "Disney style" castles for the fantasy  world and whales (killer whales) for the wisdom that they reflect and the elegance of their curves.

The popularization of Art seems to me very important because it fills a lack of the present education system in my country. Art is essential because it is the reflection of our soul, of our times and is the pulse of our society. We should be able to read art right from our youngest years as we read letters.  

A wise artist said: " The artist must create in order not to destroy himself." More and more I have the impression that he was right...
