London blue night: The city
Beyond appearances: The City of London with its newly skyscrapers always moving, always changing.
"The City" of London:  capital of money, banks and traders.
The city is lit bymany lights that make it charming, beautiful at night.
This is the first signification of this painting
So why did I name it: beyond appearances? Because like any other big city, beyond appearances of light and beauty there is another reality: abandonned homeless in the streets, money makers that rule the world, injustice and unfairness... The beauty and the beast in one picture.

I used lots of painting without much water: I wanted the effect rough, the painting brushstrokes are clearly visible: They represente the violence of the city, the noise, the lights, and yet soften by the light and warm colors.
Ambiguity, two faces of the story

French figurative painter known for bold colourful urban landscapes. Member of society of SALON D'AUTOMNE Paris Member of the Taylor Foundation, Paris Feb. 2023 PARIS (salon Les Artistes Français) March 2023 : LONDON :THE OTHER ART FAIR August 2023: TOKYO ART CENTER, JAPAN Born in the outskirts of Paris. I live and work in Paris suburbs. Living in a big city for half my life has influenced my work. I have a fascination for cities: noisy, overwhelming and lively, yet hiding people loneliness. I paint mostly urban landscapes: the interiors (shops, cafe, theatre house) full of details and colourful with very few details for the people: they are just part of the scenery. I’ve worked for the theatre for ten years and that experience gave me a love of colours, of framing my subject a certain way. I’m not looking for the exact repliqua of the reality but for an emotion I want to convey in my paintings through colors. My work is made of lots of layers of acrylic on a canvas, quick rough brush strokes and vivid colours. I use acrylic because it’s a medium that corresponds to my character: I’m impatient and this material suits me for it allows my painting a speed, a raw aspect, sometimes violent; I work in a kind of urgency.
