December 2010 - Presentation of the painter and precisions

Through small biography of the gallery, we get a glimpse of my career or my research. That said, I think just give a few details about my creations to better understand my approach :


I work as a landscaper for over ten years, I presented two exhibitions exclusively urban or landscape in 2002 and May 2009.

Realism that I pursue is influenced by the mastery of certain painters of the nineteenth century, barbizonniens (Corot, Rousseau... ) Impressionists (Monet, Renoir... ) or realistic - naturalistic (Friant, Bastien Lepage... ). Target, in painting, an urban monument, a street [...] that is harmonious and especially attractive ! Works are oil paintings mixed solely with brush on thick paper.

I never had the opportunity to go there, so I am inspired by photographs, whatever these observations, I plunged into a completely different atmosphere and I reinterprets colors or shadows ! "I develop and sharpen my knowledge and observation in a landscape. '

Finally, the choice of this "cliché-portrait" that reminds me what the beautiful work of photographer in the nineteenth century...
