BIO

Born in Montreal, 1963
Lives and works in Montreal, Qc., Canada



Since my early years, drawing, sculpting, playing with objects and especially painting, have been a second nature, a natural way to translate what I feel, what I perceive around me. 
Through human figure, urban landscape or more recently, contemporary still life, my objective is to translate a state of awareness, a quiet presence radiating from the composition and also by the finished art piece as an object. Over the years, photorealistic rendering in oil has become the perfect vehicle to pursue this exploration. Passionate and curious about life and the human experience as a whole, my inspiration comes from multiple sources. I’m interested by those unexpected visual encounters which contain some kinds of non-linear metaphorical potential that otherwise might remain unnoticed.
