This was the early stage of a new direction. I didn't know why yet but I had to try something new and I wanted to be very free about it. The idea of innocence was eating at my brain. I had told myself that the year 2005 would be the year of innocence for me.
I was born and raised in France. I grew up in a family of artists and my grandma put us all to crayons early-on. I attended the "Ecole d'art de Luminy, France, (a fine art program), and George Brown College's Graphic design program, in Toronto, where I graduated with 3 awards and honours and Applied Art magazine award. I attended the City Sculpture School and Studio (C.S.S.S.) where I did life drawing practice with a group of other artists. My work has been shown in a few Galleries.
I then worked with Chinese/Japanese brush technique and tried to find synthesis between my roots and this amazing art form. I love the contrasts between cultures, and try to express that.
My Art is constantly evolving. Though Chinese brush techniques are still a big part of what I do, it is mixed with a new personal approach, very much influenced by Russian folk art and Inuit and Haida art, Klee, and Picasso's potteries and my own personal spiritual growth. A strange mix I guess, but I am on that road and obsessed with it and I think somehow it's right because I have fun.
