I have been a painter working in this discipline for more than twenty years.
Originating from Montreal, I now live in Three-Rivers, in the province of Quebec where I established my workshop.
After having completed my studies in graphic arts and a baccalaureate in visual arts at the Concordia University of Montreal, I taught drawing and painting in this same city.
I paint with acrylic resin and oil while using mixed techniques.
I count many solo and group exhibitions. Several galleries in Quebec and in Ontario present my work, and many of my pieces are part of private and public collections.
After having explored many ways of painting, I initially seek to transmit the sensitivity felt by evoking characters. I bear interest to the human figure and I constantly refer to the forms in search of chromatic and aesthetic harmony so that in the composition this one is connected.
My paintings are structures, colors and contrasts which express life, not by copying nature but by transposing in a plastic imaginary way, dominated by women in variegated costumes which call to dreams of transcending beauty. The result is one of poetic metaphor.
