I spend part of the year in Paris and I am naturally inspired by this romantic city. The Boulevard des Capucines is located between the Opera Garnier and the Eglise de la Madeleine. It was the object of important works by Baron Haussmann in the 19th century, who considerably changed the face of Paris to make it the capital that we know today. I chose to represent the Gaumont cinema because the animation that reigns around the movie theaters (the spectators, the lights,...) is very interesting pictorially and I must say that the red of the Gaumont is very well highlighted by the Parisian stone. It is a spring day, the light is mostly in the upper part of the work while on the ground, the shadow of the buildings reflects the humidity of the road.

Born in Courrières in the North of France, I share my time between the North of France and Paris which inspires me many urban scenes including café terraces. I have always used oil paint because slow drying suits my technique better. I work in series by inspiring my surrounding, places I go to, objects I own and stage. In the series "Réflexions sur le temps qui passe", I treat the cars and Vespa in the manner of the "vanities" of the past by perforating the bodies, rusting them, thus translating the time that passes and which reduces to few things once prestigious vehicles. The parallel is obvious with our own existence. In the still lifes séries, I stage objects with a preference for metal and glass and using a palette of coloured grey and nuanced white so as to have a contemporary touch. In the series "Mes petites Nanas", I interpret scenes, situations, by putting in scene my daughter who is used to me as model (The comedy of the feelings, or the works on the small girls). Finally, the urban landscapes are inspired, as I said earlier, by my numerous stays in Paris where I live part of the year.
