Civil ingénieur INSA Lyon i discovered the painting beside my grandfather. Child i loved his still life and the smell of his studio.

In 1976 during a trip to Amsterdam i was shocked in front of the lights and colors of vanGogh paintings. it was a click that led me to discover Dutch painting Vermeer, Rembrandt and Flemish paintings.

From 1979 to 1982 i trained with a master Michel Malgrand painter native of Lyon. I recieved a complete training and lot of technics drawing, ink, charcoal, oil painting etc.. .

I chose mainly oil painting for possibilities of work on color. Since 2017 i am painting every day

When i am travelling i visit the paintings of the  world's great museums.

My main themes are colored paintings of feelings impressions and cities like  Lyon Venise and portraitures and   still life.
