He has two talents to nurture: painting and music. Being open to all the influences of everyday life, whatever their nature, is a principle from which his interest in the most diverse fields of art has developed. This led, from an early age, to his delight in constantly trying out new, original approaches to painting and music-making.
In his painting, two distinct genres have emerged: on the one hand, still lifes and landscapes in oil, the origins of which date back to his apprenticeship; on the other, portraits of popular musicians from the rock, blues and jazz scenes, beginning in the 1990s. It is a rarity when he has managed to obtain an autograph from the celebrity on the original artwork.
