The pictures, which themes are inspired by the elements of Nature, are located between abstraction and figurative and reveal a very personal style among the other forms of pictorial expression. The scripting and graphics of a modern and rupestral influence are patiently carved on clay sheets, conferring a rich and varied texture to the artwork. Works are painted and engraved with spontaneousness, foremost quality of the first artists tracing the drafts of their creations on the walls of Cosquer and Lascaux. Acrylic painting is employed in a clair-obscur fashion with warm semitones, highlighting the nuances of the very colours that Nature impregnates into stone and rock. Spawned from consciousness and feelings, the work moves the witness and through the assimilation of the experience brings confort and quietude. A sensibility, a profound passion for Art, as well as a devotion to work, engenders a continuous mutation of the style, aspiring to ever more beauty and harmony.

I will retain only what is picture of the Human heart » (Stendhal).
