Sold with invoice and certificate of authenticity. Fast and careful shipping with insurance. A Norman painter, I grew up not far from Giverny, from Chatou, between Honfleur and Paris where I studied. Coming from a family of designers and collectors, I was declared blind at the age of 7 by doctors. Recovered a few months later, I exchanged my first drawings for a few marbles; a lot of drawing, since I was very young, oil on canvas since I was seventeen. I never stopped painting, fascinated by the painters of my region, André Raffin, with whom I had the chance to go, Pinchon, Louvrier, and better known painters such as Derain, Marquet, Monet, Vuillard. .. Various and varied exhibitions in the Normandy region and in Paris since 1989; The school of Rouen and Paris, the Fauves, the Nabis, the Impressionists, the Expressionists, I draw my inspiration from where I live, mainly painting what I have seen or experienced. I position myself in a backward-looking movement, halfway between modern and contemporary painters, nostalgic for the best of the last century.
