I started to be interest in painting in the  80’s.
I studied Fine Art lessons  in Oudon (49) , in Angers and Nantes during few years. At  the same time ,  I took pictures of nature.
Now, I work  with acrylic paintings   on pictures  modified by computer.
 
My first paintings are influenced   by Bonnard, Joan Mitchell and Van Gogh works.
 
After, I have worked on a landscape called “Courossé”…. I could see the earth with distance so I could notice the nature’s variations.
I like particularly lines and landscape’s rhythms. I like abstraction in the colours.

 I choose to go near the nature to be able to paint the fields and after the earth

I looked for abstraction in swimming-pool’s paintings because it’s a very interesting subject with the beauty in colours and the body’s fragmentation. It remains me Philippe Cognée’s paintings.
