Born in July 1946, in Bordeaux, France and throughout his young age, he admired his father painting as an amateur, thinking he was incapable of doing the same.
With his boat, he sailed to the West Indies in 1977 where, a doctor in Saintes in the south of Guadeloupe, he began to paint, almost to take up a challenge.
Indeed, his father had painted a miniature to decorate his sailboat and for a long time he asked her for another to make the pair, which never happened.
One day he stopped in front of a reproduction of a painting from the Battle of Trafalgar and thought, “For my pair, this would be the perfect subject. If my father was able to do what he did to me, why shouldn't I be able to do the same? "
With a box of base oils, he began to paint a reproduction of what he saw in the book. It took him a month to finish a small 15x20 cm painting, detailed to the point of being able to count the number of cannons.
He took a liking to it and painted other naval battles for his pleasure. Without any artistic education, he built his own technique to finally free himself from copying and produce his own works! For twenty years, he produced as an amateur about 150 subjects of ancient maritime paintings.
In 1996, installed with the small family for a year, in Palm Island in the Grenadines, a couple of diving friends, owning a villa, ordered from him, in view of his previous works, a large canvas of 2.40 meters high. large, when he had in fact painted only a few miniature submarines!
And that's how painting of the seabed really began. For this large canvas, he had to paint outside. At that time, the road around Palm only passed a few meters from our house and all the passing tourists stopped to admire it in its works.
It was then a profound change from ancient seas to the seabed! People, never having seen such detailed underwater paintings, bought even barely dry originals. He was almost crying!
Now, settled in Bequia, he continues to paint, but more diverse subjects, sometimes in a more modern style.
