"I started drawing with my father at a very early age and painting when
I was around eleven. Soon, these activities became not only a game but
pure necessity like the one we have to breathe. On and off I went on
painting for my own joy and contentment. A few years ago, however, a
friend of mine urged me to finally show some of my paintings and I
started to take painting seriously then. I have since attended several
classes and prestigious seminars and academies such as the Ecole des
Beaux Arts de Montreal and North Light Art School among others. I have
been extremely blessed to receive such an enthusiastic response from
collectors in many countries and delighted also by the recognition I
have received since then.
I have chosen to represent people in my paintings with a minimum detail, not painting for instances faces which in my opinion are not the only means for an artist to convey expressiveness and feelings. My palette uses essentially great amounts of warm colors, ochres and
subdued tones with very little contrast. I want the whole atmosphere of
work to be cool, relaxing, warm and subtly cheerful"
