Born in Montreal I’ve had the privilege of living in a beautiful multicultural city where I could explore and express my creativity. I spent time at l’École des Beaux-Arts, focusing in visual arts from sculpture to drawing and painting. I also lived in south of France for several years, a country that gave me the sense of ART in so many ways and the pleasure to create freely. As any artist I started as an amateur with little general knowledge.

I happily experienced scenic painting for movies and television, a step in my life that refreshed my knowledge in art and bounced me back into my personal painting. I consider myself as a self-taught painter which gave me the opportunity to live my passion in my own way. Aesthetically I focus on fashion, a world of endless possibilities in creativity. Jean-Paul Gaultier, John Galliano and Alexander Mcqueen excite me the most.

Since 2000 I’ve been spending the winter season in Costalegre in Mexico where I found a paradise of beauty with my favorite element: WATER, including everything that evolves around it: mostly fish, birds and the exotic vegetation.

My first inspiration is the wonderful world of WOMEN which permits all my fantasies. Everything that surrounds them is a subject of creation.

WOMEN are the heart of my artistic process where they reign as a conqueror.

I do what I love the most.

Painting is my freedom

I am my paintings.

All I have to say is in my paintings
