I was born in October 1970 in Perly/Certoux (GE). I am living in the Canton of Vaud since 1994.

Art represented a lot for me during my youth, and continues to be my passion.

Through my paintings, I am seeking a sensation of warmth, a subtle game between shadow and light, as well as a harmony that gives me the impression to be "in there". Each subjet is unique, I do not reproduce the same painting.

I look for subjects that inspire me, from my great lake Region and from my travels. I really like to imagine colourful southern villages. These villages are foreseen like "dominos", which can be combined for bigger spaces.
