Artist featured in a collection
I enjoy painting motifs with the island of Bora Bora from any angle. Something about the volcanic peaks of Maua Otemanu and Maua Pahia, one sharp and one flat topped, remind me of celtic rock temples, sacred stones, like Stonehenge. Every play of light and atmosphere is transformed to magical on those twin peaks. This particular view is from the Motu Tevairoa, at the end of the day when the light turns golden, and the water has a stillness, a gentle glassy rippling...it is painted in oil on a linen canvas that has a transparent gesso ground. It has a responsive tight weave and I find it most enjoyable to paint on. I also like the warmth of the natural beige colour of the linen that imperceptibly unites the ground.

French Polynesia
I am a painter living on the south sea island of Huahine, in French Polynesia. I work primarily in oils on linen or canvas, but also in water media, pastels, and ink, and mixed media. I was born with a penchant for painting, and have been lucky enough to also be endowed with a will to stay on that path against all odds. My life path has been rich and varied and has contributed always to my development as an artist-being-human. I hope I get to live at least 500 years because I have enough inspiration and projects to last that long!
