About
The Artist...
​
I am so pleased to welcome you to my brand new Web site, where I invite you to visit my most recent artworks. This site is the materialization of an old dream of mine: showing my paintings outside of the Ottawa Region, where I have been living for more than 40 years now.
​
Since my first steps in the wonderful world of watercolor, in the middle of the eighties, under the supervision of well-known masters, and throughout all my training, education — including part of a Certificate in Plastic Arts at the Université du Québec en Outaouais — and all the exhibitions I have participated in, I have always tried to innovate.
I have developed my own style, between realism and imaginary, between nature and oneiric characters, on the borders of dream and reality. As an art teacher, that’s also what I try to transfer to the children and adults attending my group and private classes. I am pleased to invite you to explore my universe, hoping it will inspire you and that you will enjoy your journey
