He stayed in Morocco during the war then returned to Paris where he rubbed shoulders with Yves Brayer and Jean Dubuffet, among others. He exhibited alongside them in the major Parisian galleries. He also worked as an illustrator for great authors (Emile Zola, Georges Bernanos, Henri Maurois, etc.) and taught at the Gobelins school. He returned to the Lot et Garonne at the end of the 1970s and continued to work and exhibit.
