About Me
I had the exceptional chance to have the great WATKINE as master in my teens. By the time I attended university I was attracted by SOMVILLE and attended some of his classes at the Boitsfort Academy of fine Arts. JIPI showed me how to let lines and colors go where they want free of interference from oneself's will. It also was a time of group painting with PIERROT, STEURS and others. I landed in China in 1986 where I stayed 16 years digesting the philosophical pleasures of insipidity, learning the taste of water and its natural movement down the slopes. During those years, Xiaohong teached me the roots of European classicism.Today I appreciate a work well done technically but I believe that technique and art remain two different things. You need indeed to master the technique in which you express yourself but this technique does not transform automatically what you express into art.
