THE ARTIST
I
was born in 1950. In the 70's I study in
the "École
Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts
de Paris". After the diploma and a
period of personal research I begin my
professional career as a painter,
sculptor and lithographer in the 80s.
Individual mainly exhibitions and
special orders are the main part of my
professional activity. In the public
sector, besides others I design and
create the badges, medals and trophies
for the International and Pan-European
Athleticts Games for Students held in
France in 1992 and 2002 respectively. |

ABOUT MY TECHNIQUE
AND MATERIALS
The acrylic paints
Utrecht
and the supplementary acrylic
Lascaux
products are the main professional
materials of my work. I sometimes
combine bee wax with acrylic varnish and
if needed I use gold leaves, they will
be pure gold. I draw almost exclusively
on coarse linen cloth (canvas),
stretched and stuck on
contreplaqué
marine
6mm enhanced on the back with a wooden
frame (photos 1 - 2 - 3 - 4). More
rarely, I draw directly on a special
thick paper. |

ABOUT MY FRAMES
In almost all cases I frame my paintings
with wooden frames which I design myself
and the creation of which I trust in a
qualified professional carpenter. The
paintings on linen cloth are framed with
wide wooden waxed frames. (photos 3-4
-5-6-7-8-9). The paintings on paper are
positioned under glass and through a
paper wide margin, framed by a wooden
narrow waxed frame. (photos 10-11-12) |

ABOUT THE ORDERS
My
custom made works of art consist a
special part of my work. In such cases,
a draft on my part, while respecting the
unique nature of the request, may be the
basis for an agreement for the
implementation of the project (some are
delivered in photos.) |
