I'm an observer, fascinated by all the little things that make up ordinary life. I love serendipity, chance events and anything to do with change as much as the most mundane things; you don't have to be flamboyant to get my attention. In fact, I think I've retained my childhood naivety! Everything inspires me, sets me on the track of my next creation.

I now know that the best way for me to embark on a new project is to follow my instincts; there's a mixture of audacity and lucidity in my actions. I'm determined not to limit myself to just one option; acrylic, ink, charcoal, red chalk, metal, wood or clay, even ash, anything is possible, and trial and error become exciting discoveries!

I have a keen interest in ancient cultures, exploring the symbols, shapes and colors that come down to us from indigenous peoples. I'm touched by the quest for spirituality that emanates from their heritage; I dare to believe that my works can also create a bridge between my soul and yours.

I am an artist. My whole life is linked to art. In my representations of animals, people or landscapes, I seek above all truth; I want my work to restore the sacred and the trust that lies dormant within us. My art is intrinsically linked to the power of life!
